| Description of the problem | I was driving on i70 from wheeling, wv to saint clairsville, oh during rush hour. I came out of construction and set the cruise control for 65 mph. I was coming to the merge of i70 and 470 and there was a lot of traffic. My jeep, without touching the brake or control, kicked out of cruise. I was on an incline and went from 65 mph to 55 mph before i could get my foot on the gas pedal. The car behind me swerved into the outside lane to avoid hitting me. This is not the first time this has happened. It has been to the garage for this and i was told it was fixed. Someone is going to get hurt if other jeeps are doing this. I was lucky! |
