Description of the problem	I own a 2006 avalon ltd. Upon entering the on-ramp to route 23 in wayne, nj, i depressed the brake to slow the car. After confirming there was room to merge, i applied the gas and attempted to merge. I noticed and heard the tachometer surge but the transmission did not engage. I lost my opportunity to merge and had to quickly apply the brakes. By then, the ramp lane had ended and i had to turn onto the shoulder to avoid hitting an oncoming car. I brought the vehicle to to the dealer who examined the car and stated that this was/is "normal operation when compared to other cars of this type". I opened a complaint file with toyota ((#20060719xxx... Last 3 numbers left out intentionally). The transmission on this car continues to exhibit erratic behavior (transmission hesitation) under these same conditions (braking followed by acceleration). This situation significantly hinders my ability to safely operate my vehicle while merging into traffic. *jb
