| Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota camry le. While driving 65 mph, the contact activated the cruise control. She accelerated to 75 mph while attempting to pass a vehicle with the cruise control still activated. The contact attempted to decelerate by tapping the brake pedal to release the cruise control. After three to four attempts, the cruise control failed to shut off. The vehicle felt as if it would accelerate and the cruise control remain activated. The vehicle began decelerating once her foot remained on the brake pedal, otherwise, if she were to release the pedal, the vehicle would accelerate again. The contact pulled off the road, applied the emergency brake, and shut off the vehicle. When she restarted the vehicle, it began operating normally, however she did not activate the cruise control again. The toyota dealer could not locate the cause of failure. A couple of weeks later, a mechanic inspected the vehicle and also found no failure. The current mileage is 16,700 and failure mileage was 16,000. |
