Issue

On certain vehicles, the cruise control SET decrease speed button (-) on the steering wheel will increase rather than decrease the vehicle’s speed when pressed. A single press of the button will increase the speed by 1.6 km/h, a sustained press of the button will cause the speed to increase until the button is released. Unexpected increase in vehicle speed could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will flash the cab controller with updated software.
