The idle stop caused my car to turn off on the highway while I was stopped in traffic. Unfortunately, I was the last car in the line on the highway and the truck coming behind me was coming at a rapid rate of speed. Thankfully, the same issue had happened to my son the week before and he was able to tell me that putting the car in park and turning it off and back on would fix the issue.
