Drivers also complain about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/li>\n\n\n\n - increased wear of the starter and battery,
<\/li>\n\n\n\n - risk of the car stalling in emergency situations,
<\/li>\n\n\n\n - the need to manually turn off the system each time after starting the engine.
<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nFor many users this is a completely unnecessary and impractical solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
