Xterra

  • 11 miles
When driving at highway speeds of 80 mph and faster vehicle rapidly decelerated and launched forward. Dealership serviced the vehicle several times before identifying the problem as cruise control. In the meantime the problem progressed and almost caused an accident. This failure could have resulted in loss of control.
