Anyone experience some sort of glitch in their cruise control?
I was towing on the highway with cruise set to 75 mph and notice this sudden acceleration and realized that cruise setting jumped to 99. If I wasn't towing (I think the weight prevent the truck from "taking off") this could have been a disaster. I bought the truck new in 2022, and this is the first time this happened to me, so not sure if this will remain a onetime thing and never happens again. But wondering if anyone else have experienced this and potential causes.

While I havent tried in my RAM, every other vehicle I have owned limited the speed at which you could set cruise control . Most were 80 or 85 max.

You must have held the set plus down. It will jump 5 at a time up to 99.

I assure you these RAM’s don’t limit the cruise at 80 or 85. My cruising speed when I was still commuting back and forth to work on the freeway was 82-83 mph and still worked fine after that. I’m guessing over the life of my last 3 RAM’s I did that for at least 200,000 miles.
