Description of the problem	I was on my way to the dealer for an oil change and to have our new (picked-up 26 jan 06) toyota avalon looked over as it had 3,500 miles. We live in the ozarks and of course it is very hilly. I normally use the "manual" mode on the automatic transmission to slow the car down as to descend the hills leading into and out of our sub-division. However, on 23 jun i just left it in the regular automatic mode and used the brakes. When i saw there was no on-coming traffic, i stepped on the accelerator to go---the rpm's jumped to over 3,000 and then the car lurched forward. Thank goodness there was no on-coming traffic--i can only imagine what might have happened. I asked the dealer to check this occurrence out--they couldn't duplicate. Since the first incident i've had the same thing happen on 4 separate occasions--always when left in the automatic mode and after you've slowed down and then press the accelerator to go. I've read on the www. Edmunds. Com website about others who've experienced the same thing. There is definitely something wrong and before a serious accident occurs toyota needs to fix the auto transmission problem. *jb
