My Telly has about 32000 miles on it and it has quit 3 times while idling at a stoplight and twice it wouldn't start after it was parked for several hours. The manual says to push the keyfob into the start button and hold it there. This worked 3 times. I took it to the dealer who said I should push the ISG (idle stop and go) button each time I start up. This would disable the ISG feature which, I guess, is designed to turn off the engine during traffic jams or long stoplights etc. to save on gas. This advice seemed ridiculous to me but I tried it and didn't have the engine failure problem until yesterday when it would'nt start in a parking lot after sitting for a few hours. I left it overnight and went back the next day and it started after a short hesitation. This is very nerve racking and I really need to find out what is going on. Has anyone had this happen or know what to do to correct this?? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. P.S. The battery was checked and it is fine... Thanks a lot, tom

Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...
