Description of the problem | I was driving my 2012 dodge charger on the interstate with the cruise control set. All of a sudden the vehicle accelerated on it's on, canceling the cruise control setting. I could not turn the cruise control setting off, i could resume my previous speed setting, nor could i set the cruise to a new speed. I had to stop, turn the vehicle off and then back on for the cruise control setting to reset. I feel this is a safety hazard and that dodge should issue a recall to fix the problem. |
