This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Vehicle cruise control suddenly accelerates without driver input and continues to accelerate/decelerate until cruise control is disengaged. When reactivated, it works fine until the next episode.
The idle speed control valve breaks down every about two years. In cold starting, engine does not start. Replacement is expensive at $400. Toyota should recall this inherently defective part. My problem began in 1997, 1999 and 2002.
