The auto start/stop feature does not properly function causing the car to shut off when we're at a full stop. I have to switch gear to park then re-start the car. The hood sensor doesn't register even if it's completely closed . The warning light on the dashboard will say it's open even when it's not.

This is a follow on to a complaint filed a few weeks ago. I came home from a business trip on 4/5/2016.

The gear indicators (p, n, d, etc.) were flashing and it did not recognize what gear it was in. It would not engage a gear, and would not turn off the engine. I had it towed to the dealer and left it…
