Posting on behalf of my friend that owns a 96 explorer. Last night on the freeway he tried to use the cruise and the truck went nuts. Like he buried his foot on the gas, but he wasn't even really on the gas. Let off the gas and hit the cruise button again and it was still racing, by this time bouncing off the rev limiter for sure. He turned the key off and was able to muscle the car to the side of the road.
Let it sit for a few mins and tried again, as soon as he turned the key the rpms went all the way up again, so he shut it down to figure out what to do.
Let it sit for an hour or two and then came back for a tow, while waiting on the tow truck turned it over and it started just fine. Canceled the tow,and it has been running fine all day, so it seems.
Anybody ever hear of such a problem?
