| Description of the problem | I was driving my 2007 toyota avalon on route 80- east in new jersey towards new york at highway speed approximately 65 to 70 mph.

I reported this to toyota and was given a case number 1001134776. I returned the car to my local dealer and was given a temporary replacement vehicle. |
