Hello to all. First post here. I bought a 2015 Lacrosse that came off of a lease this past summer. I believe it has all the bells and whistles (besides AWD). It's a nice car for the most part and I'm glad I bought it.
I do have one big complaint though. Adaptive Cruise Control. If I would have known before hand what an abomination that system is, I never would have bought the car. I won't take the time to list all of the things about this system that annoy me. I'll just say that the worst feature I've discovered so far is the way the car accelerates once the front sensor decides that the way ahead is clear. Ridiculous! If I allowed the ACC to function the way that is depicted in the official Buick video, I'd be getting about 4 MPG.
At any rate, the sole reason I decided to join this forum was to ask this simple question: Is there any way to switch off the ACC and operate the car in good old fashioned Normal Cruise Control? I've Googled this question to death with no good results. I actually did get one encouraging lead... an answer on the official Buick site. It says you can toggle between ACC and normal cruise by depressing and holding the 'Cancel' button etc.
https://my.buick.com/learnAbout/adaptive-cruise-control. I tried it. It does not work. Probably a different model or year car they are describing.
So, any help out there? I'd be happy to snip a few wires if necessary... anything. I hate Adaptive Cruise Control!
Thanks for any suggestions.
