Just got back from a weekend road trip in my new 2022 GT and noticed some weirdness in the way the steering wheel buttons for decreasing cruise control speed work. It seems like sometimes it thinks when I'm toggling the control down to decrease my cruise control speed that I'm actually pressing the toggle in or up. If I toggle it up, it increases the cruise control speed as expected. And if I push it in, it pauses/resumes cruise control, but for some reason, it seems that decreasing the speed does not happen consistently.

Is anyone else seeing this too?

I just crossed 700 miles on this car, so I'm not too thrilled about taking into a dealer for them to tell me they can't recreate it...or better yet, know nothing about Mach-Es.

After a year of owning my Mustang I haven't experienced this behavior.

If you push up or down, while also pushing the accelerator pedal, it sets it to whatever speed you're at currently as an instant set point. So even if you push down, but you're using the accelerator, it will just set to whatever speed you're at currently, even if its higher than what it was at previously. If you're not pushing the accelerator, it then moves the set point up and down.

interesting. Will try that. Seems obvious! :)
