 I have a 2002 toyota rave 4, i have even complained to the dealership where i bought the vehicle. i complained about it speeding out of control when i used the cruise control and it still does and i can reproduce it every time on the same road. i also had complained about steping on the breakes and the car not wanting to stop. dealership told me it was in my head, and that they couldn't find anything wrong with it. i was actually in a car accident on my way into the dealership to have them check the same problem again. i reported it several times to them an i have had the car since 2005.

 When shifting from drive to reverse and vice versa a clanging sound is heard from the front. i took car to dealer and was told front brake pads need replacing and rotors need to be resurfaced at a cost of $250.00.+ tax. car had only 10,250 miles. the problem is still present. i was finally told this is normal. problem was not there until the car reached 7500 and the first tire rotation was performed by the toyota dealer. *jb
