Description of the problem	I pulled up to a red light at a busy intersection and the auto start/stop activated stopping the engine. When the light turned green, the engine would not restart and a warning popped up stating the battery was almost dead and i should drive to charge the battery. It was a little too late for that! I did not receive any type of warning prior to the battery dying, and why on earth would the start/stop allow the engine to stop if the battery didn't have enough juice to restart the vehicle?? I received a lot of angry honking from people stuck behind me in the intersection, but thankfully a cop nearby saw what was going on and stopped all traffic to assist with pushing my vehicle off the road. My car is barely a year old, this should not have happened. I was three miles from a huge international airport and on my way to catch a flight, but instead i had to wait on roadside assistance to come help my stranded vehicle.
