Consumer Description

THE CRUISE CONTROL COMES ON BY ITSELF DURING NORMAL DRIVING. AFTER THE "CRUISE" LIGHT COMES ON THE "SET" LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES WITHOUT WARNING. THE BRAKE WILL MOMENTARILY STOP THE ACCELERATION, BUT THE ACCELERATION RESUMES ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED. IT OCCURS ABOVE 25 MPH. IT KEPT ACCELERATING AND WOULD HAVE CONTINUED IF I HADN'T HIT THE BRAKES. I HAPPENS REGULARLY, AND WE HAVE PARKED THE VEHICLE.
