Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A WINDY COUNTRY ROAD AND THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED ITSELF AND SET TO 90 MPH WHILE I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 50-55. CANCEL DID NOTHING, USING THE BRAKES CAUSED THEM TO SQUEAL BUT THE VEHICLE REMAINED ACCELERATING. I WAS ABLE TO DISENGAGE BY PUTTING THE ENGINE IN NEUTRAL AND USING THE PUSH BUTTON TO SHUT IT OFF.
