Cruise Control Problems of Saturn SL1

Consumer was traveling about 55mph on highway and had cruise control on, cruise control wouldn't let up. She turned cruise control off, and she applied brakes. It took ten minutes to stop.

Faulty cruise control module caused the cruise control to re-engage after the cruise control switch was moved to the off position. Nlm.

Driving at 40 mph when rpm gauge started to go down, deceleration occurred and car stalled. Attempts to restart car resulted in it repeatedly stalling. While trying to restart rpm's were going to high before the car actually stalled. The car was taken back to the dealer and the fuel pump and idler air control module were replaced.

For approx. 7 month period, cruise control erratic. When on highway, with cruise power on, and press set speed, car rapidly accelerates to approx. 72+ mph and cruise would disengage spontaneously. After each incident like this, cruise would not function at all until car is turned off and on again. Typical behavior: get on highway, get to 60 - 65 mph, turn cruise control power on, press to set speed, and car accelerates rapidly. All this behavior stopped spontaneously in December, and now cruise functions normally. I am worried that behavior, which lasted 7 months, will re-occur in the future.

Cruise control module failed.
