Consumer Description

ON OCTOBER 5, 2016 AT APPROXIMATELY 12:45 P.M., L ENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL AT A SPEED OF 55 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE TRUCK ACCELERATED TO A SPEED OF 60 MILES AND HIGHER. I TESTED THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM TWICE MORE AND IT DID THE SAME THING. THE VEHICLE NEVER SLOWED DOWN. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I WAS ON DAM NECK ROAD WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 55 MILES PER HOUR. THIS IS A CITY STREET. AFTER THIS OCCURRED MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, WHICH CLEARLY INDICATES A MECHANICAL PROBLEM. I THINK THERE MAY BE OTHER VEHICLES THAT COULD HAVE THIS SAME MALFUNCTION AND CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH.
