I have a 2006 Malibu LT v6. The brake lamps seem to work by themselves. When i accelerate, the lamps are off. When i take my foot off the gas pedal, and the vehicle loses any speed, the brake lights come on without me touching the brake pedal. This bugged a friend who drove behind me and said it seemed like i was an elderly at the wheel. "gas, brakes, gas, brakes, etc." Could someone please explain this and if this is normal for this car?
Second issue, the cruise control doesn' function at all. When i press the On/Off switch, the light on the switch comes on, however when steps are taken to set the speed and cruise, it doesn't take control of the throttle. It should be noted that the cruise control indicator light doesn't illuminate on the instrument panel. I assume the light is green? I wouldn't know, cruise hasn't worked since i purchased the car.
Thank you in advance for any help!
