Recently my wife bought a used 2017 Buick Envision low miles. It get's 32 MPG mostly highway driving. This car is made to shut off the engine when you stop at a stop light, and re start as soon as you take your foot off the brake and touch the acc. pedal. I can feel the car shake a little bit when the engine starts back up. I know this is supposed to help the gas mileage. But how long will that starter last? will the savings in fuel cost be enough to put a new starter on? I am tempted to dis connect that feature when the warrantee runs out, if that can even be done. ...........................MO
