VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAVE A 2007 DODGE CALIBER SXT MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE HAS A CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM WHICH NEITHER THE DEALERSHIP NOR CHRYSLER WILL FIX. THE PROBLEM WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL IS IT WILL TURN OFF AND NOT SET IF AT OR ABOVE 75 MPH NOR WILL IT STAY ON IF OVER 70 MPH AND THE VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING A LOAD LIKE A HILL. I WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED HOWEVER THEY CHECKED MY VEHICLE AGAINST ONE ON THE LOT AND COULD NOT GET THE ONE FROM THE LOT TO PRODUCE THE SAME ACTION. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT TURN OFF FOR THIS REASON. I AM NOW AFRAID IF I DO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL THAT SINCE IT WILL TURN OFF BY IT'S SELF THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT IT WON'T TURN OFF WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR
