Description of the problem | The kia has a system that controls cruise control in a special way. This system allows you to place the car it this mode and what it does beyond cruise control lane change control. It detects the highway speed limit signs example: i drive from prescott az to phoenix periodically. The speed limit on i -17 is 75 mph for most the trip heading south on i17 it is 75 mph at sunset point the speed changes from 75 mph to 65 mph. The car changes speed to 65 mph. It changes back to 75 mph later exciting times passing through rock springs. I am doing at 75 mph ( no one is in front of me they are in back and one to the left side. ). The car speed drops to 45 mph. The freeway speed is 75 mph. However, the side road in rock springs is 45 mph. So now i have 4 cars trying to avoid me because i suddenly going 45 mph in a 75 mph zone. Approaching anthem - the car suddenly drops to 35 mph in a 75 mph zone. No one was in front of me. But the speed limit on the side road next to the freeway is 35 mph. No one in front of me. I have cars around me honking and avoiding me - because i am driving 35 mph in a 75 mph freeway speed zone. This is dangerous. The dealer just says it is an option. |
