problem #2

Dec 022001

Beetle Diesel

  • miles
While coming to an intersection and downshifting, instead of the car slowing down, the cruise control turned itself on and proceeded to accelerate. By pressing the brake pedal, the cruise control turned off. The cruise control switch has already been replaced one time. My car has now been in the shop 8 times for numerous electrical problems and VW of America doesn't seem too interested on solving the problems.
