NHTSA Complaint #10183253 — 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA

YESTERDAY GOING HOME, I TOOK THE INTERSTATE. TRYING THE LOWER SPEED (FOR BETTER MILEAGE), I WAS GOING 60 MPH WITH THE CC SET. TRAFFIC CAME UP ON ME AND I FELT MY TRUCK WAS IN DANGER, SO I USED MY FOOT TO INCREASE TO 70 MPH. WHEN I REACHED 70 MPH, I PRESSED SET ON THE CC SWITCH FOR IT TO SET THE CRUISE AT 70 MPH. I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE PEDAL AND MY TRUCK SLOWED DOWN TO 60 MPH, THEN DOWN SHIFTED AND SCREAMED LIKE CRAZY UNTIL IT HAD PASSED 70 MPH, THEN SLOWED BACK DOWN TO 70 MPH. I WAS ABOUT TO REPRODUCE IT 3 MORE TIMES BEFORE GETTING OFF THE INTERSTATE. I'M SURE IT WOULD DO THE SAME AT LOWER SPEEDS, BUT DID NOT HAVE A CHANCE TO CHECK IT. *NM
