2008 Toyota RAV4 Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1283448
Internal NHTSA #	10865028
Manufacurer	Toyota Motor Corporation
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	RAV4
Model Year	2008
File date	19/02/16
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The problem is repeatable. Going uphill on a highway at around fifty mph with speed control on. Vehicle speed has dropped about 2 mph below the set point. I tap the speed control lever once to reduce the set point by about 1 mph. The speed control instantly opens the throttle wide and the transmission shifts to a lower gear. The result is an abrupt increase in speed rather than than the intended decrease. If, under the same circumstances, i pull the speed control lever to turn off the control the same thing happens but is quickly terminated when the control disconnects, without much increase in speed.

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.
