2007 Toyota RAV4 Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	769822
Internal NHTSA #	10313865

Model Year	2007
File date	10/09/09

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	This is a possible expansion of the present toyota "sudden acceleration" investigation. It involves one momentary incident of uncommanded acceleration on a 2007 toyota rav4 vehicle in sept. 2009. It has not recurred nor was it reported to toyota nor the nhtsa. While traveling on an open highway, with the vehicle under cruise control, i attempted to resume my normal cruising speed after an apparently successful "brake shutdown" of the system. On applying the "resume speed command", the engine went to an apparent full throttle position with the transmission downshifting into "passing gear". This continued for a short time, estimated to be less than 2 seconds, followed by a sharp deceleration and a second full acceleration (again of a momentary length of time). After the second incident, the vehicle resumed normal operation with continued cruise control. At no time did i apply manual brakes or shift out of "drive". The incident has never repeated. The report is strictly to inform you that the apparent problem under investigation should not be limited to 2009 model year toyota's but should go back further into their fleet with "electronic throttle control".
