 Description of the problemI was driving my 2007 toyota camry hybrid home in a light snow storm. At slight inclines where there were stoplights, the car's traction control system will kill all power and i was unable to move the vehicle more than 1 mph, a scary situation since i was sitting in the middle of a very busy, truck-filled intersection with no way to get out. This situation repeated itself 6 - 7 times over a 3 hour period. Finally, i had a friend with a tow truck come and plow directly ahead of me and spread sand so i could get to my driveway. I reread the owner's manual to be sure that there wasn't an override button for the vtc but no there is not one, at least on this model. I called my toyota service center who said that they could not help me. I contacted toyota's consumer aid group and they said my dealer should check it out. I had the car looked at a week earlier with no issue. There appears to be a lot of similar complaints about this issue ..... See http://www. Consumeraffairs. Com/news04/2008/01/prius_winter. Html i am a professional sales engineer driving in all weather types for many many years. I don't get scared. I was terrified with the lack of control i had on this car. In normal weather, this vehicle is a dream-come-true. But, i won't drive it again if there is a chance of snow in the forecast. Someone has probably already died because there is no way to override this traction control system.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
