Orher than that 1 time, the adaptive cruise control has worked great for about 5000 miles of towing our 5th wheel.

I've not had that issue with mine, but I do know that it also works while towing.

Not to get too far of track here, but I use cruise control all the time towing. I love it and its very smooth. I don't use the exhaust brake though. Too often it feels like the exhaust and the cruise don't like each other. You can feel the truck accelerate and slow down harder than when using cruise alone. Its like riding on a see saw. Up and down, up and down.

My adaptive cruise has also done the same thing the OP listed but its only done so in the colder months if I recall correctly. I keep my adaptive cruise turned off. I don't like it.

That's what my grandfather said about power windows and power locks!

And it took a long time to get them remotely reliable. I have two '88's that don't work, and a '94 who's locks don't work and the window motors are on their last leg.

Meanwhile, all the manual windows/locks in my 60's/70's/80's/90's trucks work beautifully.

Your grandfather probably never had to work on his manual operated stuff either

Some things are OK, but the majority of them...? I'd choose otherwise if I had the choice...

My mom said something similar about my first 10 speed bicycle. "Nine more things to go wrong." OK mom, I'll keep that in mind.

I haven't had the ACC or CC error on my truck but it hasn't been driven in the cold much.

OP, mine did the same since new. There is an alignment procedure that your dealer can do that will fix the issue. They did it to mine 10k miles ago and it hasn't occurred since.
Sorry, been reading so much of the manual, missed informed you...

Set the Exhaust brake to "Automatic Exhaust Brake" - 2nd push of the button. That really works well with Cruise.
