Slow reaction of pushbuttoms cruise control

[Lucky luke]

I found out that pushing pushbuttoms on the steering wheel for cruise crontrol like pausing/reactivation, speed up/down, etc... does not always have effect. Sometimes I have to push twice or 3 times before it's reacting. What gives sometimes very dangerous situations. Is anyone else has the same experience?

Nope. Make sure you don't have your foot on the brake pedal. If you depress the accelerator, the speed setting reacts but the car doesn't because you are overriding the cruise control.

Thanks. One example: i am driving cruise control and come on a part of the road where I have to decrease the speed from 90 to 70 km/h. Sometimes it works correct, sometimes I have to try multiple times to have a reaction to decrease the speed.So, often, I have to press the brake pedal because I am driving to fast, what stops the cruise control function, etc... The same happens if I try to pause the cruise control.

Yeah, I have the same issue, but I learned to apply more force to the buttons and then it works fine most of the times. I'm not a big fan of these buttons.
