While towing a travel trailer, accelerator was applied to allow me to pass some slow semi's. there was no response from the accelerator as I held it down for about 10 seconds. Exhaust brake engaged!! it wasnt even on!! however, I had the cruise control on but not engaged. I quickly engaged the resume feature and used the accelerate function of the cruise control to speed up to avoid an accident. This has happened on multiple occasions but this by far the scariest. Also the exhaust brake engages when not even on at random coasting times when not hauling anything. It is very dangerous to not be able to control a big truck due to these glitches. Also two of these Firestone tires have worn bald at 18000 miles. Accelerator has no response when a quick stop and go transition is applied.
