2016 Honda CIVIC Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

 ComponentVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemThe vehicle cruise control picks up speed when going down hill. The honda dealership stated that the vehicle is a base model and does not have adaptive cruise control, therefore, according to them, is working as designed. The "design" has a serious safety flaw as the driver must constantly be aware of the terrain and speed of the vehicle which seems to negate the use of a cruise control. I experienced several frightening situations while on a road trip from yellowstone national park to seattle this summer. The car was gaining as much as 20-30 mph on steep, mountainous terrain resulting in dangerous speeds. I discontinued use thinking that this "feature" was malfunctioning. I can not believe the dealer's response that the cruise control was working as designed is in the interest of public safety or the truth. I was left with no other recourse but to file this report.
