P0588 Severity
Once the vehicle's onboard system no longer detects the issue, most codes will disappear on their own. If your vehicle still has this code, however, it should be properly diagnosed to avoid a more serious problem.
For a proper diagnosis, RepairPal Certified shops have the equipment, tools, and expertise.
Moderate severity codes might not threaten the vehicle's safety or functionality immediately, but you should still get it diagnosed within a reasonable time frame to keep your car running well.
The cruise control system uses vacuum to maintain speed. The Cruise Control Vent Solenoid allows the system to release vacuum if the vehicle needs to slow down. If the Vent Control Solenoid does not perform as requested, code P0588 will be set and cruise control will be disabled.
