2007 Toyota CAMRY HYBRID Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	774580
Internal NHTSA #	10317783
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	CAMRY HYBRID
Model Year	2007
File date	05/02/10
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Cruise control set @ 70 mph speed limit on i-85 when a tractor-trailer truck rapidly closed the interval behind as i started up an incline. Without warning my speed quickly dropped and the truck moved dangerously close. Stepped on the accelerator to increase speed and within a second or two the cruise control further increased my speed. Do not know what the speed increase was because i was paying attention to the interval between the truck and my car and not what registered on my speedometer. After going over the hill's crest there was state patrol car in the median who clocked my speed at 80mph. Had not previously experienced speed drops and surges with the cruise control and was much more attentive to the actions of the cruise control for the remaining part of the trip. There were multiple instances where the speed would drop from six to seven miles per hour as the car started up an incline and then would rapidly accelerate, overshooting the setting by three to four miles per hour (once over five) before ultimately dropping back to the set speed. This is both a safety concern as well as uncomfortable when there is a series of rolling hills. The toyota dealer could find no problem with the cruise control, finding no dtc fault codes and no abnormal findings after force testing the cruise system. I suspect the issue may relate to the electronic controls for the hybrid system. As the car went down hill, the gasoline engine appeared to be in "idle/coasting" state and the gps/energy display showed no energy flow to either the drive wheels or the battery from the engine. The electric motor, however, was in charging mode.
