WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED IN MY 1995 6-CYLINDER CAMRY, IT CAN SUDDENLY AND FORCEFULLY APPLY THE ACCELERATOR, JERKING THE VEHICLE FORWARD AND BACKWARD BEFORE DISENGAGING AND NOT REENGAGING UNTIL THE IGNITION IS TURNED OFF. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO READ THE ERROR CODE AND ASSURED ME IT WAS NOT DANGEROUS AND REFUSED TO REPAIR IT UNDER WARRANTY. I SPOKE TO THE TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE AND HE TOO REFUSED TO AUTHORIZE WARRANTY WORK. I HAVE NOT USED THE CRUISE CONTROL SINCE AND HAVE ASKED TOYOTA TO RECONSIDER A WARRANTY REPAIR BASED ON RECENT DISCLOSURES OF CONCEALMENT OF UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. *TR
