Driving on the NYS Thruway with Cruise Control on and it dropped out. I tried to reengage several times and it would not engage. On the way home I tried it again it kicked on and kicked off right away and since this incident I've had no cruise control. I researched recalls and see there are 3 1999 Recall 99V124000, Electrical System. 2007 Recall07V336000 Vehicle Speed Control. 2008 Recall 08V051000 Speed Control Recall. I spoke with Ford and they suggested I spoke with the Ford they said to contact NHTSA. My car has less than 60,000 miles and has been well maintained so this is concerning me. The car is from Florida. Checked the fuse they are fine.
