| Description of the problem | I was driving on the freeway with my cruise control set at 65. The vehicle abruptly started accelerating. Fortunately i had left myself a good distance from the semi in front of me or i would have rammed into the back of it. This was quite unnerving and after braking i received the following error codes: abs, esp, traction control and cruise control. |
