| Description of the problem | The cruise control does not disengage when i push the cruise control cancel button. When i have the cruise control on and going 65mph, (on a highway) or so, in a high elevation and want the cruise off, i press the brake, the cruise control does not disengage. If i press the cruise control "cancel" button, the cruise control does not disengage. I can tell because the cruise control light on the dash is still lit. What does turn off the cruise control is pressing the cruise control button that i push to engage cruise control in the first place. So to turn off the cruise control, i must press the cruise control "on" button. Shouldn't pressing the brake or the cruise control cancel button turn off cruise control all the time? I have placed another complaint on this subject before with you, but before i didn't know how to cancel the cruise control. Now i have found that i must press the button that also turns it on to turn it off. |
