NHTSA Complaint #11481744 — 2018 HONDA PILOT

We are original owners of the vehicle. At busy intersections, including when in the middle of the intersection for a left turn, the car has shot off with the auto-off feature. Upon removing our foot from the brake the truck shut off completely (engine should have restarted). To restart the vehicle we had to ensure we were in park and restart the engine. This catches the driver off guard and creates a panic which is not safe. This has happened about 10 times since owning the vehicle. During my last service appointment I reported the incident, and they checked the battery to ensure it was not a battery related issue. Since that appointment in February we have had this happen ~3-4 times. There is NO OPTION to just disable the auto off. Se we are doing our best to remember to de-activate it every time we start the engine. I'm taking the car in for service again within the next week and will have them recheck the battery.
