Cruise-Control Failing …
For some reason, my cruise control has stopped operating normally.
I use it quite a bit, as I do a lot of driving on the HWY, but recently one of two things is happening:
1. I'll be in cruise control, and hit a bump in the road, and suddenly it deactivates.
The green "cruise" light stays on, but the action itself doesn't; it's i'll just decelerate like normal driving w/ your foot off the pedal.
2. Sometimes it just isn't cruising.
Regarding #2, a guy backed into me a while ago, and though there wasn't any body-damage, he must've jolted my transmission out of place, 'cus whenever I put it in park, I have to push the shifter forward a little more than usual, so it's securely in P. I have to make sure it "clicks" it into place, so I can remove the key. That said, when Im in D the gear-indicator light on the dash blinks, as if it's off-on, off-on, off-on, like it's loose, let's say; as if its not exactly in the right spot (the shifter).
Any ideas?
