Two problems related to cruise control have been reported for the 2017 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Whenever I hit a bump (ranging from small pot hole to larger pot hole) on the highway going 60+ mph, my cruise control will shut off by itself. Speed decelerates very quickly and I have to get it up to speed quickly to avoid getting rear ended. This has been happening for just over a year and it happens every time I hit any kind of small bump at an accelerated speed. Started happening around 5000 miles on Jeep and still does it at 17000 miles.
While driving under normal conditions, I'll hear a single audible 'ding' and then see the airbag and esp light illuminate on dash along with the speed odometer drop from the speed traveling to 0 before normal operation. This happens much more often when the cruise control in engaged. It happened 5/14/2017 while traveling interstate 65 to such an extent that not only did I have to cancel cruise control, I actually had to turn if off to stop the dinging and flashing of the airbag and esp light. I had to finish the last 2. 5 hours of interstate travel without cruise control.
