Consumer Description

1N AUGUST OF 2004 I OWNED A 1997 TOYTOA 4 RUNNER. IT ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN TO 95 MILES PER HOUR. I HAD IT TOWED TO A TOYTOA DEALERSHIP AFTER 2MONTHS THERE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS CAUSED BY AMLFUNCTION IB THE CRUISE CONTROL EVEN THOUGH THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ON THE REPAIR COST ME OVER 15OO DOLLARS. THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN 6 MONTHS LATTER I THEN BRROUGHT IT TO A LOCAL SERVICE STATION WHERE THE MECHANIC STATED THAT IT WAS AGAIN CAUSED BY A MALFUNCTION OF THE CRUISE CONTROL. IT SAID THE SIMPLE ANSWER WAS TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL WHICH COST ME 40 DOLLARS AND I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM AGAIN. I WROTE TO TOYTOA BUT THERE NEVER ANSWERED ME. *TR
