Sonic LT 1.4L?

  • Automatic transmission
  • 15 miles

Bought my car ..NEW. Decided we're going on a trip, tried using the cruise control, but just would not work correctly. So, I thought maybe I just didn't know how to work it yet. NEVER got to use it on the trip..ugh! Read up on how to use cruise control, the dos & don'ts...so on...

We went on another trip...No Go AGAIN, just couldn't get it work right, it didn't feel like it was stopping when I pushed the brake. It just stayed in cruise control & I had to slam on brakes almost causing horrific accident, because of how hard I had to push brakes..I was standing, both feet on the brake, it would NOT stop cruise, not with steering controls either...even when trying to engage the cruise to turn on..it seemed to NOT ENGAGE...MANY TIMES WE TRIED, THEN IT FINALLY DID AND WELL...WISHING IT HADN'T, NEEDLESS to say..NEVER used cruise control.

My Mom told me she saw something about the cruise control, but can't seem to find that either? Anyone else have this problem?
