This auto stop/start feature
This auto stop/start feature is extremely dangerous in the snow when driving in areas with hills.
If you start to slide backward, step on the brakes and ... the engine cuts out leaving you without power steering and the ability to use the famed 4-wheel traction to correct the skid. So there you go sliding backward out of control. I live in Seattle, a city with dozens of very steep hills. I would never, ever have this system in my car. Much too dangerous for my family and others on the road.
From a safety standpoint, it should auto-disable anytime there are snow or ice conditions. It should always allow the driver to permanently disable this "feature."
