“With the vehicle auto stop function engaged (which is always engaged when starting your drive, can't be disabled automatically) and you come to a stop, the engine will auto stop. When this happens, and simultaneously you need to resume driving, the system will generate a 61-12 error, flash warnings about the brake system and stability control system possibly not working and engage the parking brake. This means that you are stuck where you are until you gather your wits and disengage the parking brake. …”
