Owner report 11434531 · 2021-09-27 (September 27, 2021)
While drivng with the cruise control engaged and encountering a downhill speed increase of about 5 MPH, the transmission kicks down to engage engine breaking.

I have tested this without the cruise engaged by shifting from D to L and engaging the kickdown process and engine accelleration in an identical m…

When child was adjusting the recline in the driver side middle row bucket seat, the seat broke.
