2012 Jeep WRANGLER Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1210099
Internal NHTSA #	10748698
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	WRANGLER
Model Year	2012
File date	17/07/15
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I was operating my vehicle on the highway and attempted to engage the steering wheel mounted speed control. The speed control failed to turn on, so i pressed the button several times and found that it would not activate (turn on and show "cruise" on the gauge cluster). Approximately an hour later i pressed the cruise control button several more times, and it eventually showed "cruise" in the gauge cluster. I was then able to set the speed control to 70 mph. After traveling on the highway for approximately one hour with the cruise control set, i attempted to shut it off utilizing the steering wheel mounted button. The cruise control would not deactivate by pressing the on / off button. I was approaching an exit, and was able to deactivate the cruise control by utilizing the vehicles brakes, however the i could not shut the power to the cruise control off until i shut the jeep ignition off. The cruise control power button now works intermittently. Sometimes it will activate the cruise control power, sometimes it will not. I do not feel comfortable utilizing the vehicle feature due to the inability to consistently shut it off. I have conducted some research on line and have seen many complaints on jeep forums about this issue. The forums have stated that many jeeps have defective clock springs.
