on cruise control at 70mph starting uphill as speed decreases transmission will shift to a lower gear as it should. almost immediatly speed control shuts throttle down to idle causing drastic loss of speed. In heavy traffic this is a danger to following traffic as it is as if I am coming to an abrupt stop. FMCo manufacturing says so what, take cotrol of your vehicle manually. This is an option but no where in manual that in writing this will happen. Dealers have no knowledge of this problem. FMCo thinks throttle doing this is great. To my knowledge no other models in production do this throttle down. My thought is this should be in manual for other drivers. This has happened since 2015 but no one finds codes which there isnt according to Ford
