Why does car decelerate 5-7 mph when cruise control is on?
If the car is going up an incline, it will attempt to keep the speed constant with the setting of the cruise control. When that process is satisfied, the car may decelerate a bit to keep the same speed. If the car continually decelerates whe using the cruise control. stop using the cruise and have it checked. It id very dangerous to use the cruise control that is not operating properly. It could cause the car to accelerate unexpectedly.
Is it true or false that using cruise control is not fuel efficient when driving on hills?
When you use cruise control it does all it can to keep you going at the speed you set it at. That means if you are going up a steep hill it will hit the gas to try to maintain your speed. When going up hills if you slow down just a few miles an hour you can save more fuel. Hard acceleration greatly reduces your fuel mileage. Many cruise controls will accelerate very hard when your car slows down.

How do you get the cruise control to work on a 93' Plymouth Acclaim?
on my 1994 acclaim the buttons that activate the cruise control are on the steering wheel (Note that the cruise cannot be engaged at all if you are traveling under 60kph). there should be a button that says "set" and under it will say "Decel". there will be a button beside that one that says "resume", "accel". when you want to use cruise control you must be traveling at least 60kph and hit the "set" button, the car will then keep its speed at the speed you were going when you hit the button. if you want to accelerate or decelerate momentarily then have the cruise take over again at the speed it was set at simply hold the "accel" or "Decel" button. to disengage the cruise completely just press the brake slightly and the cars speed will be under your control again. Check the clock spring behind steering wheel(have to pull wheel). I had a problem with the horns and C/C not working. Found that one mounting pin was cracked, causing erratic horn operation and no cruise control. Make sure road wheels are straight forward before removing/replacing spring.
