Hyundai Cruise control problem?

Maintenance/Repairs

2007 Hyundai Tiburon, 4 cyl, auto. Often when the cruise control is engaged, and going up a hill with the need to accelerate, the car downshifts into what used to be called “passing gear”, but does not upshift back into higher gear, not even after reaching full speed again. It stays in “passing gear” until cruise is shut off by applying brakes.
Dealer refuses to help me, they say they cannot recreate the problem…duh…dealer is in an urban area, cruise is used on hiways. It’s like they think I am a liar about this or something.
Does anyone have any ideas as to the cause of this problem that I might relay to the dealer, my 5 year warranty is fixing to expire, and if they can put me off until then, I will have to pay for the repair!
