THE CRUISE CONTROL CAME ON WITHOUT WARNING AT 5 MPH ON WET STREET, AS IT WAS RAINING, AND HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. I WAS CHANGING FROM ONE INSURANCE COMPANY TO ANOTHER AND WAS NOT COVERED, DEALORSHIP FORD ADMITTED THEY HAD HEARD THIS HAPPENS SOMETIMES BUT DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE I WAS OUT OF LUCK. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE NOTED THAT THIS DESIGN, APPARENTLY IN USE SINCE 77, HAS THIS QUIRK, BUT I CANNOT USE MY CAR NOW BECAUSE FORD REFUSED TO FIX THE OTHER PERSONS CAR WHICH WAS CAUSED BY THIER PRODUCT!
