ECONO mode troubles?

My G wagon typically shuts down at stop lights while in "econo" mode.
This is normal, however sometimes it would not start back up and would have to be put in park and started again! Not good in traffic.

Anybody else?

Man that sucks! That's the kind of thing that worries me about too much technology. Keep on the dealer, they need to take care of it no matter what. Don't give up. Especially when you spent that much on a vehicle.
