Concern: 1/20/11 the maintenance light came on and after driving a few miles the cruise control light came on by itself and the car began to accelerate.

After the incident i drove the car about another 20 miles with no duplication of the problem. Concern: 1/21/11 start the car and the maintenance light was on. About 2 minutes into my snow covered trip i applied the brakes and abs system activated and worked as needed. I drove another 5 minutes and stopped at a red light. With my foot on the brake the cruise light came on the car started to accelerate. Keeping my foot on the brake i pushed the cruise button to try and deactivate it.
