The vehicle cruise control picks up speed when going down hill. The honda dealership stated that the vehicle is a base model and does not have adaptive cruise control, therefore, according to them, is working as designed. The "design" has a serious safety flaw as the driver must constantly be aware of the terrain and speed of the vehicle which seems to negate the use of a cruise control.
