Auto Shut off stalling.

[nyorker867]

My new Bronco sport stalls when in auto engine shut off. Brought it to dealer and they could not find any codes and did not happen ( of course) when they tried to replicate it. Anyone have the same experience? Apologies if already a thread on this.

What do you mean by it stalls? Like the engine turns off and than you need to put it in park and press the start button to get it running again?

Exactly. I get a message to do so.

What does the message say? Is it something like this:

Note: If the Shift to P, Restart Engine message appears and the amber Auto-Start-Stop indicator light is flashing, automatic restart is not available. Manually restart your vehicle. See Information Displays (page 102 (108-9)).

Page 108-109:

Something like that it basically stalls and then says shift to park and start your engine, but this usually happens right as the light turns green and people start beeping at me so is this supposed to happen? Because if it does, it’s really an awful feature.

Look under "Description of the Defect" on page 2 of the Recall Report.

It is not normal
Might want to have a load test performed on your battery by a Ford Dealership

And for now you may want to disable the Auto Stop Start each time you start your engine

What year is your Badlands? Any auxiliary lighting or other non OEM devices that would draw electricity?
