For the past month, i have had intermittent displays of "service electronic braking system" and "service antilock brake system". When this occurs, the cruise control becomes nonoperational.

Nothing has happened so far. Steering wheel switches for electronic display quit working. Air bag indicator flashes some time. Radio controls intermittent.

I think this one needs to be included as well.
