Have any of you other Volt owners noticed this?
I've found that for cruise control driving I get better results in D, overall. When ending the cruise drive, or around town I use L for braking in most instances. Use of D approaching the corner you visit every day would make your life somewhat less exciting, perhaps an idea to consider?

I also find that cruise control kicks off when I'm on the inside of a corner that tightens enough to light up a vehicle in the outer lane when that vehicle is within the Volt's perception of a forward collision. The vehicle in the outer lane appears stationary to the Volt's system so it goes into alert mode.

Overall though .... Love this Volt!!
