Recently the cruise control sometimes drops out while at highway speed.
Attempt to re-engage sometimes works but often doesn't. Does anyone
know whether the Eletronic Throttle Module has anything to do with
controlling the cruise control? Could there be a connection between
this drop-out symptom and some glitch in the ETM?
Would appreciate any opinions. Thanks.

Yes. The cruise control is just software. Any ETM problems will shut
down the cruise control.

Check w volvo dealership, I think there was a recall and an extended
warranty for the throttle do-hickey.
