Likes and one issue (auto start top) after 450 miles

[Marc_in_CT]

So I took delivery almost 2 weeks ago. 2.0 ecoboost, AWD, Lariat, 360, spray in bed liner with 4k tow package. SMOOTH ride. Pleasantly suprised with throttle response, its got giddyup for a 2.0!!!

So, I have been using the Auto Start Stop feature and it had been working as I've read, come to a stop the engine shuts off, let foot off brake or turn wheel and it starts right back up. We'll afte 450 miles something changed. When I cone to a stop the engine shuts off but when I let off the brake it does not start back up, I have to hit the throttle or turn the wheel slightly. It's been doing it repeatedly after a few trips of turning the feature off and back on, but same thing. Haven't called dealer yet, that's on tomorrow's list of things to do besides work. Is this normal or has anyone else expierence this?

Sounds like you inadvertently turned on the Auto Hold Stop feature, which is a button below the dial shifter.

Oh,

Still learning lol. Great truck. I've owned an 89 and 94 ranger then 04 Sonoma and this is by far the smoothest and most responsive.

I have the same truck as you, just without the 4K. I got mine a few days ago. LOVE IT!

I turn off the start stop feature as soon as I start the truck. Can’t stand it. I do the same when driving my wife’s Escape . Good way to burn up starters eventually.

Sounds like a PEBKAC error to me.
