I was traveling in my new-used 2008 honda had set cruise control after leaving out of a small town back to my house on 259 north out of ore city texas I set the cruise at 72 it jammed and would not disengage it took me off the road and I hit an embankment knocking me out hearing the stories and seeing the pictures that were took of me and my car it was bad I've contacted honda corp with no help as my insurance co has washed there hands of this complaint they were both asking for an inspection of the car I've tried…
Wild emotion hard shifting hesitation and high rpms shifts around 456 rpmit doesn't seem to do this when the car is running cold versus after it's been on a trip and engine is warmer. On cold start the vehicle not in motion makes a loud noise not sure how to describe it
