Description of the problem | On march 9, 2010 i took my 09 toyota camry in for the floormat recall and to have the cruise control looked at for an acceleration issue. When the cruise control slows down it will kick into about 5,000 rpm's for about 10 seconds and put me at least 10 mph over the speed i set it to. (which is usually when i turn it off!!!) when i picked my car up at the end of the day i noticed that my gas pedal has been shaved off at the bottom making it very short and difficult to drive with plus my floor mats had not been modified as i was told they should have been. I was also told that the problem with my cruise control could not be duplicated but to bring my car back if i have problems in the future. I was then told that it is 'normal' for toyota cars to rapidly accelerate with the cruise control on (at 5,000 rpms??? Really???)and that a 5-8 mph difference in the speed you set the cruise control at is also 'normal'. I just looked up the kbb on my car and think i might be able to get out of it without a loss. I am seriously considering it. |
