TRIED TO SET MY CRUISE CONTROL UNDER NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING CONDITIONS AND IT WOULDN'T SET. I INADVERTENTLY APPLIED THE BRAKE A FEW MINUTES LATER WHILE STILL TRYING TO SET THE CRUISE CONTROL AND I NOTICED MY "CRUISE ENGAGED" LIGHT APPEARED. AS I CONTINUED TO APPLY THE BRAKE, THE CAR TRIED TO MAINTAIN THE CRUISE SPEED. I COULD ONLY DISENGAGE CRUISE CONTROL MODE BY SWITCHING CRUISE CONTROL TO THE OFF POSITION. THE SITUATION IS REPEATABLE. UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, THE CRUISE WILL NOT ENGAGE. WITH THE BRAKE APPLIED, THE CRUISE WILL ENGAGE AND WILL CONTINUE TO TRY TO HOLD SPEED AS THE BRAKE IS APPLIED WITH EVEN GREATER FORCE - GIVING THE APPEARANCE THAT THE CAR IS ACCELERATING (OR TRYING TO ACCELERATE BACK TO THE SET SPEED). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN AURA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED. THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT BEING DEPRESSED. THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD SHUT OFF ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES FOR THE FAILURE. A DIAGNOSTIC WAS PERFORMED HOWEVER, THE DIAGNOSTIC WAS UNABLE TO GENERATE A FAILURE CODE BECAUSE THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TEST DRIVEN AND THE FAILURE WAS DUPLICATED HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 80,000.
