| I wa traveling on i-20 east traveling from vicksburg, ms heading to atlanta, ga. i had been using the cruise control consistently for about 3 hours. i also was using the accelerate & decelerate buttons on the steering column. i approached a slight curve in birmingham, al with the cruise control locked in at 60 mph, when all of a sudden the vehicle accelerated full throttle. i applied foot pressure to the brake, but the vehicle would not slow down. it continued to accelerate to about 85 mph. i then somewhat raised up in the seat to apply all the foot pressure i could to the brake. it slowed down slightly. when i took my foot off the brake, it began to speed up again. next i fumbled with the cruise control buttons to see if they were stuck. the vehicle continued to accelerate. finally, i moved the gear shift to neutral & the vehicle began to slow down. when i put the vehicle back in drive, everything appeared to be normal. needless to say, i did not use the cruise control anymore. thank god, we survived! *tr | |||
