I picked up one yesterday. On the way home got stuck on I35 in wreck traffic for an hour.
Pull up stop , pull up stop, etc. it would shut off each prolonged wait. I didnt like it. If you move your foot off brake for second you can keep it from happening. I am going to see how to override or turn it off.

My car has stop/start and I hate it. I have to turn it off every time I get in the car. I wish there was a way to make "off" the default.

Let up on the break pedal a little bit when you come to a complete stop and it will keep the motor from shutting off if it bothers you that much.

I've got a 2018 F-150. It has a button on the dash you can push and turn it off. As soon as I start my engine I push that button. It will stay off until you turn the engine off. The button is right beside the emergency flashers button.

I disabled it on my wifes jeep by unplugging the hood switch. It makes it think the hoods open and disables start stop permanently no more button push every restart.

It re started fast as you can move your foot back to the gas but we still couldnt get used to it. Every time we take it to the dealer they plug that back in.

It bothers me when I'm trying to run the a/c on high. During cool weather, no biggy.

I think some of the folks complaining about auto start/stop are still griping because there's no button on the floor board for the high beams.

tell them not to or quit going there. When I take my Toyotas in for service I tell them not to bother even checking the air filters. Last time the service writer locked my glove box. I was thinking: are you going to take the key from them too? One time I just told that I am not paying $35 for a $10 cabin filter. They don't care they make enough on the fools that do.

hey I loved the button on the floor of my Capri. It did more than just turn on and off the high beams. It had a momentary flash button and also windshield washer all with your unused left foot.

Youtube may be a good place to find a solution.

I don't like it but have learned to live with it. My son-in-law is a Ford tech and he says there's no way to disable it. I've just got use to pushing the button right after I start the engine. He thinks because of all the complaints Ford will come up with a way to permanently disable it.
