1. use of cruise control on West virigina turnpike with MPV 2. cruise control fails to maintain set speed. Speed will vary +/- 3 mph. In going up hill cruise control over speeds set speed by 3-4 mph, sometimes accelerating at the increased speed by several seconds. At 70 mph this causes the driver to have to brake to avoid rear ending the car in front even though the car ahead may be 8 or more car lengths away. This is a totally unsafe condition. 3. dealer would do nothing to repair saying that the speed variation was within mfg. Limits?
