Auto stop stop failure on highway
Renting this model car and had a scary issue in the middle of the highway - has this happened to anyone?
I was stuck in stop and go traffic on the highway and the auto stop/start kicked in while I was stopped. When traffic started moving, I took my foot off the brake and tried to accelerate but the car just wouldn’t move/restart.
It first told me to put my foot on the brake, and then eventually told me to put the car in park. Once I put it in park, the car eventually restarted and I was able to put it back in drive.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way to prevent this from happening again? I’m renting the car for the rest of the week and don’t have time to exchange it - should I just disable the auto stop/start every time I start the car?
