Toyota Camry Vehicle Speed Control Safety Report | June 07, 2013
Reported on June 07, 2013
| THIS EVENT OCCURRED TWICE: I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30-40 MPH W/OUT THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED. WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OF THE GAS PEDAL TO APPLY THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED. I HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS I COULD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. IN THE SECOND INCIDENT I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR OUT OF GEAR WHICH CAUSED THE RPM TO JUMP SIGNIFICANTLY. ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO COULD NOT FIND ANY OPEN RECALLS NOR COULD THE DEALER IDENTIFY ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. I ALSO TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY ANY PROBLEMS. *TR | |
