Defect Summary

The involved cruise controls may malfunction through certain types of misuse. If the engage button on the unit is forced down while the unit is in the "off" position (pushed in), damage to the electrical contact inside the controller could result. This would cause the unit to become automatically engaged whenever the controller is turned on (pulled out) regardless of whether the engage button has been pushed down. Although the unit will disengage upon brake application, it will re-engage upon release of the brakes.

Corrective Action

The dealer will replace the defective unit, free of charge, within 30 days of receipt.
