    Hello,
    I'm a Canadian Importer of Bugs, Boats & Cheap Jeeps...and have taken on 2 Black GPs. An 02 coupe GTP and an 06 GXP sedan. The GTP has the ABS light on and the GXP has RUNAWAY CRUISE CONTROL.
    Yes RCC Runaway Cruise Control. Any setting above 60 mph/100 kph and in short order will go full throttle, no throttle over and over again. Just like someone at the programming department of GM installed a VIRUS. Can you immagine a character like NAPOLEON DYNAMITE behind the wheel when this happens? That novice might panic. After all it is 303 hp. The salesman at the GM dealer says not to tell the customer or take it to GM service and get a scan and or heart attack when finding out the cost of repair?

    There a cruse control fuse, just pull it. No more cruse control, but sounds safer to do that for now, until you get it fixed.

    I may say rude things but learn to take a joke. The internet is funny when you can laugh.
