Well it might be used by some people between roundabouts and if by chance it would not disengage as per the recall they put it in neutral and roll to a safe spot. See I was trying to be helpful I guess you don't use your cruise as much as we do. It keeps you from speeding and comes on and off normally with the touch of a button on the steering wheel which is instinctive after some time. I'm the one obeying the law in the right lane creating no problem.
People may not have thought of popping the transmission into neutral when the cruise wouldn't turn off. Perhaps someone like you may turn off the ignition and loose your power steering and brakes and run up on the curb in or around a roundabout and injure me a friend or a family member. I don't know you, or your driving skill set so if it applies to you its my free gift if it doesn't apply move on.
Unrelated but similar, people have died because in a emergency they were supposed to dial nine eleven on their phone and could not find the eleven button. We all know the number would be Nine, One, One. Got the picture? Good. Can you imagine being in the middle of a life changing emergency and you can't find the eleven button on your Phone?
