wierd cruise control issue

WTF....

On my home from work, im cruisin down the highway got the cruise control on. Going about 70, at about 2,500-3,000 rpms. Then all of a sudden the cars starts acting up. The starts like bucking.... Like its hittting a very small rev limiter? I shut off the cruise and it stopped, i then gave it gas and it acted normal ? Put it back on cruise, and it was then fine ? I have noticed it doing this on and off. but never as bad as i was tonight. I some times notcie a VERY, i mean VERY slight bucking whne the cruise is on but never for long. Anyone else get this ? What do you think could be wrong ?

Car is brand new only 1,500 mile sit, mods in sig....

Dont know sometimes what causes cruise to go out is if the 3rd brake light is blowed or it could be a sensor.

your cruise control can be disabled....and a DTC code set, caused by riding the clutch.
Its an easy fix, basically the code just needs to be cleared and it will work fine.
