   I belong to a Prius discussion group, and a couple of members have had   
   strong acceleration when using the resume button on their cruise   
   control.  They believe the cruise control may be the problem on several   
   models of Toyota.  After using the resume button the cruise control held   
   the accelerator way open well after the car reached the previously set   
   speed.  The people reporting this were able to turn off the cruise   
   control easily enough, and the brakes slowed the car while they were   
   turning it off.
