1 Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 01/02/2020

5th time event has occurred. After extended driving when pulling into a parking spot the vehicle will commence to accelerate. Only by aggressively applying the brake to prevent the vehicle from plowing ahead can I place the transmission into park and turn off the vehicle. Chrysler previously acknowledged cruise control problems. I think the problem still exists. This is a dangerous vehicle. Previous file number #10916715.

2 Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 04/26/2018

While driving on the interstate ,with the cruise control engaged,traffic was slowing down due to road repair, I applied my brakes lightly to disengage the cruise control, but the vehicle remained in a forward thrust. I was fast approaching a vehicle ahead of me, and before I realised I wasnt going to stop with further application of my breaks, I hit the vehicle in front of me resulting in a near fatal colision. I was saved by my seat belt and the air bags. I can only estimate my speed at the time of collision to be between 40 or 50 mph, as my cruise control was set at 62 mph.
