THE CARS AUTO IDLE OFF FUNCTION THAT SAVES FUEL BY TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AT STOP SIGNS AND LIGHTS IN INOPERATIVE. I HAVE HAD IT INTO MULTIPLE DEALERS 4 TIMES SINCE 12/2020 WITH THE COMPLAINT. IN MY OPINION THERE IS A TEMPERATURE SENSOR THAT IS MALFUNCTIONING AND NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO GO INTO THE FUEL SAVING MODE. I AM TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO MAKE THIS FUNCTION WORK PROPERLY. WASN'T THE CAR CERTIFIED FOR EMISSIONS AND FUEL ECONOMY WITH THIS FUNCTION IN PLACE?
