GM petitions NHTSA to avoid recall

[hillcountryredneck]

GM has gone straight to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to make its case that a full-blown recall will not be necessary for some electrical gremlins that can cause the cruise control to turn off and indicator lights to flash in its newest pickup trucks.

In its petition, GM says that the circumstances needed to trigger the problem are so small during normal operation that a full recall will not be necessary because it does not impact the safety of the existing pickups. Oddly, the glitch only occurs when a specific set of steering-wheel controls are used and accessed in a specific order.

 

Continuous problems with my cruise control during normal operation on flat or hilly terrain. Control varies or jumps when cresting a hill or at bottom of hill. This also occurs on relatively flat terrain and cruise control jumps a couple of hundred rpm's to catch up to the set speed.

 

Any others out there.
