Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Often when I have cruise control on and push the button to increase my speed, when I have reached the desired speed and let go of the button, my car continues to accelerate and won't stop accelerating until I touch the brake pedal. It's very frightening. This problem occurs approximately once in every 7 times I try to use this feature of accelerating while using cruise control. Because of its regular recurrence, the incident date, below, is meaningless.”
NHTSA complaint #10316434, filed 2010-03“Parking into a space vehicle jerked/ forward going approximately 40mph. Consumer crashed into a parked vehicle, lifting it onto his. Wheels were still spining when they hit. Insurance totaled vehicle out. Dealer never inspected vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #890445, filed 2001-06“Cruise control varies approx 5mph on a straight, level road. Erratic cruise control can cause rapid acceleration, creating skidding in wet conditions, both dealer & car company refuse to repair.”
NHTSA complaint #716610, filed 1999-12“Car accelerated to 40mph from a dead stop by itself in a parking garage side swiping 1 vehicle and hitting a concrete column head-on, injuring the driver.”
