Like at a red light or drive thru or whatever?


I've driven newer cars that do that but my car from 2008 definitely doesn't do that

It's a fuel saving feature on some newer cars.

I usually turn it off when I drive one. I find it so annoying.

My 2007 did that once. Because it misfired or something.

I have an electric car and a HEMI V8 truck, so both of them do not do this for opposite reasons.

That doesn't sound safe at all.

It does sometimes, it's not really consistent and I never know what actually causes it to do it

It ignites again when you let go of the (hand)brake

Usually when you take your foot off the brake it will boot back up. It gets annoying if you switch pedals quickly because you'll have your foot on the gas and it hasnt quite actually engaged yet so then you kinda lurch off the line like you dumped an imaginary clutch.

i have a 2017 and no. you can tell when you're next to a car that does cause you'll hear it start back up. they'll be the slow ones after a light turns green and you'll be thinking they're just texting on their phone.

I just drove a rental that did and it was a little annoying when you get to just a regular stop sign and lose power steering for a moment and you think your car died lol.

How isn't it safe for a car engine to turn off and back on again a few moments later? It's doing the exact samething it always does when you turn the key in the ignition.

Seems the gas savings would be offset by having to buy a new starter earlier than usual.
