| Description of the problem | Four times now after the stop/start system has engaged while at a stop and i release the break to start driving, the car either flashes 4 wheel drive unavailable and then goes into limp mode not allowing the car to drive over 13mph until the car is restarted or most recently states transmission warning service engine and won't allow the car to drive at all until i restart the car in the middle of the road. Both times after restarting the car has driven with no issues but most recently the service engine light has remained on. These issues only happen with the stop/start function so i have to remember to turn this feature off everytime i start the car. This has happened twice in the middle of a busy intersection in the city leaving me to sit in the middle and wait for my car to shut off, turn back on, and hopefully drive away while hoping no car drives right into me while trying to do this. Very unsafe! |
