Vehicle was stopped on an uphill grade. When I began to accelerate on the grade the car would move a about three feet into the intersection but would not go further. A loud rumbling sound and the car vibrated but would not move.. another car to my right had to stop to avoid hitting me. T think the traction control is designed poorly as I have read similar complaints online.

The traction control system in our 2006 Toyota Avalon will not allow the car to drive in snow. Once a wheel starts to slip the brake is applied and the car will not move. As we live in Colorado this is a serious problem.
