I have been owned this vehicle for last 5 yrs. I have complained about the speed every time I go to the dealer for service. I have complained about the down hill speed. Even if you put the cruise control on 45mil/hr still car gets speed up to 90 to 100 miles.on flat road car doesn't slow down even you do not push gas paddle. The dealer said it happens when you down the hill even if you use cruise control. I will take some body with me and video recording and post on line. I have been this problem since I bought the car. I have contacted toyota for this but no result. My wife scare to drive this car. Please advise me how to resolve this issue or how to seek legal advise. I look forward to hearing back from you.

At low speeds, vehicle is constantly shifting gears, making it impossible to maintain constant speed under 40 MPH without complete concentration on throttle or by utilizing cruise control. Gas pedal is highly sensitive and any small increase in depression of pedal at low speeds causes the vehicle to jerk forward. Vehicle fails to go into neutral and decelerates rapidly when gas pedal is released. Computer memory has been reflashed twice by dealer with no resolution. In my 50 years on the road, this is the most dangerous and aggravating vehicle I have ever driven. The electronic throttle/transmission combination on this model is not designed correctly and this vehicle should be recalled.

2010 toyota camry. Consumer writes to address concerns and observations with vehicle *tgw the consumer noticed when driving at highway speeds, when he removed his foot from the accelerator pedal he expected the vehicle to naturally slow down with no braking necessary. However, the vehicle did not respond immediately. The vehicle acted as though the cruise control was engaged. When the engine did respond, there was a 2 to 5 second search pattern engaged with a sweep low RPM to high RPM while it tried to find a performance solution and set point.

The cruise control on my 2010 toyota camry sometimes continues to accelerate the vehicle after I take my hand off the cruise control accelerate lever. The speed of the car continues to accelerate until I hit the brake.

I have a 2010 toyota camry le. My car has driven "differently" since I purchased it. I will be at a stop light, and it will just start moving-even with my foot on the brake. It feels like it drives in cruise control and just doesn't let up. After this recall, I am 100% nervous to drive my vehicle. Is this how it starts? I call the 800 # and sit on hold forever, or I am told further information is forthcoming. I drive 60 miles a day and have a small child. My car is brand new, it should not be doing this.
