| Description of the problem | I was driving on m-80 across illinois, for about 2 hours on cruise control, set at 69 mph. I suddenly realized that the car seemed to be going too fast, as i passed a couple cars rather quickly. I glanced at the speedometer and saw it, in about one second, go from 85 mph to 87 mph and i immediately braked, thereby stopping the cruise control (?) from continuing to accelerate the car. When this happened, i did not have my foot on the gas pedal or my hand near the cruise control mechanism. The car just simply accelerated quickly on it's own. I tried to continue to use cruise control to drive back to michigan, however shortly thereafter, it began to rain/snow so i didn't use the cruise control after that. This is a new car that i just bought in september. |
