The contact owns a 1995 Land Rover Discovery. While driving approximately 55 mph with the cruise control engaged, there was a smoke odor as the cruise control independently disengaged and the vehicle made a jerking motion. The SRS and ABS warning indicators illuminated. The contact discovered a burning odor coming from the steering column. The dealer stated that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 98V040000 (air bags, vehicle speed control). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 159,000.

There was a recall issued in 1998 regarding the speed control and its possible effect on the drivers airbag. My car went through the correction, but I have had problems with the cruise control twice. If this is related to the safety recall I am concerned that the correction was not sufficient.
