Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemWhen operating at 65mph on cruise control i noticed a truck ahead of me slowing at a hill, so i pressed the "down" button to reduce the speed to 64, then again to 63 mph. When i clicked again for 62 mph the vehicle suddenly sped up because the cruise control had jumped back to 65 mph. By that point i was quite close to the truck and had to slam on the brakes to avoid a collision. This happened to me twice before i figured out what was going on. My dealer has verified this issue in my vehicle and has determined that all new 2014 tiguans on their lot have this defect, as well as at least one 2014 passat. A member of the tiguan owners group on facebook has reported that his 2010 tiguan has this issue. Volkswagen of america customer service has officially tried to blow me off and make me go away. This issue does not occur every time, usually randomly occurring between 30-40% of the time.
