Call the Toyota Customer Experience Center at 800-331-4331 and get a case number like Charles,Pam and I have. Tell them there are others with the same problem and reference our case numbers. The corporate guys get these comments/complaints... Maybe they will read these and light a fire under technical support for a fix to our RAV4 Cruse Control problem. Post a message back here with your first name and case number so others can call and reference our case numbers on this problem.

(200708101001) Gerald Got this ref# Friday Aug 10th. My Rav4 is scheduled to go back to the dealer tomorrow for the 2nd time about this problem. Hope I don't have to make an --- of myself but I am not going to accept "this is normal" like I did in May. My best friend bought one a few months back and he travels the entire state of VA with it for his job. When I asked him about it he said he had not have any problems with his. I don't mind the car having a problem...what I dislike is it not getting fixed. |

I have an 07 4cy Rav4 that I bought in May and the cruise control is unbelievably bad. I like the car in every other way, so I took it to my dealer once and they said it was "working as it is supposed to." I'm heading back tomorrow because I called and said it is just unexceptable. IMAGINE MY RELIEF TO FIND YOUR POSTINGS! Thank you so much for the case numbers and additional ammunition with which to deflect their blame the victim attitude. If you want to read other postings I've made and that I'll be taking with me tomorrow on RAV4world and other sites, here they are: http://forums.automotive.com/70/6352094/toyota/2007-rav4-cruise-control-problem/- - index.html http://www.topix.net/forum/autos/toyota-rav4/T4L9L8J535IQD8VBU http://rav4world.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=116818&sid=6b1b7f54125104f1f35b01ffb- - 1373b3e http://rav4world.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=119538#119538 http://rav4world.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=119344#119344 ces1938, "Cruise Control on 2006 Rav4" #1, 4 Jul 2007 8:21 am I'll also post a case number soon, probably tomorrow. Thanks again. Steve (RayRay6) |

Replying to: mlmcgahee (Aug 13, 2007 12:14 pm) She also tried to tell me that cruise control should only be used on flat roads--that cruise control should not be used for "hills." I asked her if cruise control should only be used in Kansas. I said I lived in central Missouri with rolling hills, not in the Rocky Mountains. I also asked her what she meant by "hill:" the height, the degree of incline, and the length. She didn't know and changed the subject. I also said that if cruise control should only be used on flat roads that should be indicated in the owner's manual and a warning given to all buyers of Toyotas. (There's no glory in being right.) I know four other 2007 RAV 4 owners and none of them have had this problem. My local service manager has also talked with Toyota Customer Service to try and make them understand the problem--that this is not basic shifting to another gear, this is a transmission that goes nuts when ascending a "hill." Basically I have two choices like the rest of you--either wait for a solution from Toyota or seek arbitration. Thanks for listening to me vent. Pam
