 Description of the problemThis e-mail concerns the operation of the cruise control system, and concerns all vehicles that operate this way. I recently purchased a new truck with a 4 cylinder automatic with a cruise control. I was not told and did not know that the cruise will activate the passing gear to help maintain the speed of car. The concern that i have about this is, if you are set at 70 mph and have a blowout before you can tell what has happened the cruise control can activate the passing gear and easily cause the vehicle to go out of control, and when hitting the brake to stopped cruise and the car could loose it. I am telling you about this because there have been a number of cars that have wrecked because of loosing control and jumping the medium and so on. This could have been the cause. Also i have found that the cruise kicked in the passing gear on most hills when set than when it was not set.. I have retraced my path on a given stretch and with the cruise control off there was only one hill that it needed more help to maintain the same speed. Someone of authority needs to investigate these problems. I believe this can be a very serious thing. *ak
