Eventually vehicles can be more difficult to start because of age and wear. Cylinder compression becomes less efficient, spark plugs foul and fuel distribution is less reliable.

I wonder what the stats are for this type of car for engine services. Is this only for certain cars? How do you get this option.

I want to make sure to never buy a car that has this. Also would like to choose another car in the rental lot and avoid those that have that annoying option.

Dumbest video ever. Staged.

Reminiscent of Bret Baier trying to put Pete Buttigieg on the spot for not inviting Tesla to the White House meeting on tailpipe emissions.

I own a Hyundai Sonata and if I sit in the car with the engine idling after a period of time a notice appears my dashboard alerting me that the car will shut down at certain point. The car is a little over 3 years old and it has only happened twice, when I get where I want to go, I can't wait to get the hell out.

The rest of it is all your assumption.
Staged or not, I thought the video was amusing.

I wasn't trying to start an argument or anything. I was just asking if that's what you thought. I didn't mean my reply to sound negative so apologies if I did.

My 12-yo Camry still starts perfectly despite the fact that the engine shuts off every time I stop.

So does my 12 year old Honda and gets 26/34 MPG without start stop.

It looks fake. Remember postings on youtube earn money by number of views they get.

Back in time had quite a few cars like that.
Stop on hand brake, engage clutch, keep the revs up with heavy right foot!

Your golf cart does it all the time and all hybrid vehicles too..
