It's only been on the Wrangler for one year. And every implementation is different. So if we give it another year, they'll get the bugs worked out of the JL system.Not sure what you mean by “get it perfected soon”. This has been on cars for years now and pretty much the range of reactions by consumers is the same regarding love it, hate it or don’t care.
That annoyed me for the first week also. I learned to shift to neutral as I come to a stop in a parking space and then immediately hit park. That prevents the on, off, on, off situation. After a while your brain learns how to activate ESS with different pedal pressure also. You get used to it.I was going to post this. It is an okay system and I do leave it on in certain situations on my drive home such as just pulling up to a light that just turned red and I know wont change for a bit. But man is it annoying when I come to stop in a parking spot, engine shuts off, I shift to P and the engine starts back up just for me to immediately turn it off again.
Situations like pulling across oncoming traffic such that if your vehicle stalls they wouldn't have time to react. That has caused severe crashes since long before ESS was even a thought in any engineer's mind.Situations like what, driving?
At the end of the day, the really funny thing is that this fuel saving, money saving, environmentally friendly feature can be flipped off with literally one press of a button. Yet there are dozens of threads of moaning and complaining about it. That just goes to show you how terribly spoiled we are in America.
