Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The auto start software will turn the engine off when the car is still rolling. I can be rolling 2-4 MPH and the engine will just turn off. There’s a huge delay after the engine restarts for power to continue. There is no way to permanently turn off this feature. If you are making a left turn across traffic you can be in a situation where the car will allow you to roll into oncoming traffic with the engine off. And as you press the gas nothing happens. It happens randomly so there’s no way to “learn” how the car behaves and anticipate it. …”
