Had to look that one up!Once you are at 0.5-0mph, relax your pressure on the brake pedal, but keeping enough on to stop & hold the truck. With a little practice, you'll be able to restart it while still on the brake pedal and finally, keep it running without shutting down. When you can consistently bring your truck to a complete stop and keep it running without hitting the off button, you will have achieved Smart-ASS status like me!
SWMBO won't drive our Escape because of the dead steering and she's afraid it won't restart. 2016-17 Escapes occasionally would do this requiring you to put it in park and manually restart it. Exciting when your'e halfway out in an intersection waiting for traffic to clear for your left turn. In-laws had a '17 and I guess there was a TSB or recall for this.
