| Component | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | When driving on a 2 lane highway, i set the cruse control at 58mph. The cruse set was done at the crest of a hill. The car then accelerated to 70mph before backing off to 58mph. This car has never done this on this hill or any other hill. In fact it's always held it's speed very well. This may be a one-off incident, never to occur again, but i felt it needed to be reported to the dealer as i've only got 6000 miles on this car. The service tech laughed and said this was normal. I disagree. |
