START/STOP Technology

Isn't start/stop driver mode dependent?. Works in AUTO mode. I noticed on my SCAT if in Sport or Custom, start/stop is deactivated.

I was in Auto mode and it did it again tonight. Did not stop and do a restart at stop light. I have not heard that it is deactivated in sport or custom. Is yours doing this? later RJD

Yes, noticed that it works that way within days of purchase. AI's take: Switching your Dodge Charger into Sport Mode sharpens throttle response, firms up the steering, and automatically disables the Auto Start/Stop system. The engine stays running at stops, providing instant acceleration when you need it. I always run it in in Custom or Sport for that reason.

There's a list of conditions that must be met for it to activate also. However, normal driving on a new car you'd think that it would work.

Well I just reached 1000 miles and it just started doing it. Later RJD

Guys once again it works it depends on the foot pressure....press harder for to activate

It also depends on the stop...if its a sudden stop won't work regular driving works every time for me

Can you verify the engine shuts off and the tack goes to 0?

I sure will next time in in the car i will take a Pic to show

wonder why there is no mention of this in the manual. Later RJD
