Intermittently when the cruise control is set it suddenly disengages by itself. When this occurs vehicle decelerates to a low speed. Then, without warning cruise control engages at the speed it was previously set. Dealership replaced cruise control module, and repaired the wiring at the harness to the pin connector because of a shortage. However, failure recurred.
