What the data shows

None of the cruise control complaints mention a crash, fire, injury or death.

What owners wrote

The location of the gas pedal and the brake pedal are too close together. Driver can press both pedals at the same time. This may cause a loss of control and crash. It is possible to move gas pedal bracket where rods are attached.

February 2000

The accelerator pedal sticks badly. When you finally manage to press hard enough to make it move, it causes the van to violently lurch forward which can lead to loss of control of the vehicle and/or an accident.
