Had a similar thing happen with our Challenger SRT. I had CC set and I was slowly passing a semi on the interstate in a torrential down poor. As my car got up almost even with the front of the semi, I was hit with a massive "bow wave" of water off the truck. The car read this as a solid wall and applied the brakes, which kept me in the wall of water until I pumped the accelerator.
That was a bit unnerving but I like the system and I'm glad it is so equipped.
On a similar note, the next truck I buy will have adaptive CC as well. If Ram doesn't have it I will buy the Ford.
You should never use CC in rain or slippery conditions. Hydroplaning or any loss of traction can cause the CC to react and cause a loss of control. There are warnings in your owners manual.
Great. I'll nominate you for internet Mommy of the year.
Apparently you still need one. You do exactly what the manual advises you against and then complain that it put you in a dangerous situation :S Didn't your momma teach you anything?
