Adaptive cruise control was enabled and in use and the vehicle nearly rammed into the leading vehicle. The vehicle speed and distance became erratic and finally the vehicle had an alert that the acc was unavailable. This was a very scary incident and could have resulted in a collision. An earlier model Bronco had a misalignment radar module recall but it appears my vehicle should also be included in this recall as well.

On rare but recurring occasions, perhaps twice a month, powering on the adaptive cruise control results in one of two issues: 1. The acc will engage, but set itself for 15 mph, even if driving at highway speeds. When this occurs, the acc either cancels itself out, or remains on until it detects a malfunction, and then cancels itself out. 2. On rare occasion, the autonomous breaking will, upon powering on of the cruise control, seem to detect a phantom vehicle that is not there and attempt to aggressively brake. The Ford Bronco acc is unique in that it attempts to set the acc on when the system is powered on, unlike other vehicles where the driver must power it on and then set it.
Component- cruise control cutout switch recall# 05s28. Performed repaired on 6 June 2006. Called my dealership regarding this recall, they adamantly refuse to perform a repair on my vehicle due to the fact that my vehicle repair history shows no open recalls. However an supplemental order order#16 was issued sometime in 2016 by Ford regarding this same matter stated that the repairs performed do not correct the problem and a new part must be installed. My vehicle does not have the repair that corresponds to this supplemental order, hence it shows no open recalls, apparently it was ignored by the previous owner. I called Ford national customer service and I was told that is up to the dealer. The dealer service manager informed me that due to no recalls open shown in my vehicle repair history I would have to pay for the repair labor and the part. The danger of fire is imminent if this is not repaired ASAP. I cannot do the repair myself or other than an authorized dealer for if anything happens I will be liable. I need that your agency assists me with this very critical situation.
