Consumer Description

CRUISE CONTROL ON MY 2003 TOYOTA MATRIX SOMETIMES DISENGAGES WHILE TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY. DECELERATION IS BETTER THAN ACCELERATION, BUT IT IS STILL UNNERVING WHEN FOLLOWED BY OTHER CARS. FREQUENCY IS ABOUT ONCE A MONTH, OCCURS ON ONE TRIP AND HAPPENS THREE OR FOUR TIMES. THE CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES EVEN WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. MY WIFE AND FRIENDS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS IN MY CAR, SO IT IS NOT JUST ME. WHEN I TURN MY VEHICLE OVER TO THE TOYOTA PEOPLE FOR ANALYSIS, THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG. I CANNOT TELL IF THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL SHORT IN WIRING WITHIN THE STEERING COLUMN OR IN THE ELECTRONICS. *TR
