My E-350 was recalled for the cruise control fused wiring harness refit. Now, I have intermittent, uncontrollable high throttle settings that I cannot deactivate with the cruise control. It is as if the cruise control is trying to accelerate the engine to high rpm with no input from the driver. It is a very dangerous and scary situation. No matter what driver input, the cruise control will not deactivate. Full brake pedal application, and ignition deactivation are the only overrides. The engine revs to high rpm even when in park.
