“While traveling down interstate at 65 MPH with speed control engaged, when hitting brake to begin slow down to exit up ramp, I pressed the brake to disengage the speed control, however the truck began to accelerate even when depressing the off button for speed control. Vehicle continued to accelerate, so I had to put transmission into neutral and pull over until vehicle slowed.”
