Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“We were traveling on flat, open interstate roadway in rainy weather at night with cruise control set when the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated quickly. I noticed the vehicle felt like it downshifted and felt like it was accelerating hard. I looked at speedometer and speed had increased by more than 5 MPH over what cruise was set in a matter of 4 seconds or so. I then applied pressure to brake pedal at which point the vehicle felt like brake system pulsed 4 times, and cruise control did not appear to disengage. …”
