When trying to use cruise control the car will accelerate on its own and decelerate on its own, but not in accordance with road conditions. Rarely will the car maintain set cruise speed forcing the driver to cancel cruise control. At this time cruise control is inoperable.
I attempted to use my cruise control, and the car began accelerating on its own. I tried to press the brake and to manually turn off the cruise control, but the car would not slow down. Pressing the brake as hard as possible would stop the acceleration, but would not decelerate. I called aaa who called the state police. They recommended pulling the emergency brake. After pulling that and keeping my foot as hard as possible on the brake, I got the car down to ~30mph and took the keys out of the iginition. Subsequently the dealer states that they cannot reproduce the problem, but they have found significant damage to the rear brakes, the emergency brake, and to the wheels. I have spoken to the dealer and Honda customer service and have been told that it will not be covered under warranty since they canot reproduce the problem. I do not feel that the car is safe to drive if this problem has not been identified and fixed. I am desperately looking for help in dealing with this issue. Thank you!!.
