Worthless tech in your vehicle?

The auto stop/start function. You get to a red light, you come to a stop. Your car turns off. The light turns to green, you press on the gas, and your car starts back up. The problem is that sometimes there’s a little bit of a delay at times…

I hope to NEVER buy a car that has that feature!! I discussed this with a mechanic once when our car experienced a problem...without getting too technical, there is a part that gets ground down over time from starting the car. It just happens and it usually takes about 200,000 miles to make that happen, but here we have new cars that are constantly starting now, so that part is going to go out sooner and it's not cheap!! No thanks.
 
Mine has Apple's car stuff built in, but I'll never touch another Apple products as long as I live, so...pretty pointless tech to me :D

My work vehicle has the feature, and I’m constantly turning it off. Find it very aggravating. Actually had an issue where it did it when I was waiting in a turning lane and my car wouldn’t start back up.
