2006 Toyota AVALON Vehicle Speed Control Cruise Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	629350
Internal NHTSA #	10190191
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	AVALON
Model Year	2006
File date	30/06/06
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Laser cruise control system: when the system detects a vehicle/object within the programmed following distance it slows the vehicle as designed. When the vehicle/object then leaves the detection zone the vehicle will, if it has slowed significantly, suddenly down shift and accelerate very quickly. This could lead to loss of control and possibly cause a collision with another vehicle if you have changed lanes to overtake the vehicle that caused you to slow. I cannot think that the manufacturer intended the system to work in this manner , but it seems to be common across all of these vehicles and not a failure. *ak
