When a car has ASS activated, all mechanical components shut down on engine stop. On a hot day with temps of 40 deg C and not a cloud in the sky, the sun beats in through the windows and the car interior traps heat. On driving in city traffic, all your other systems are shutting and starting constantly. This puts a lot of wear on those systems. The belts get a jolt every turn on and off, same with power steering, AC, and the battery, unless something has changed car batteries function longer at 5-10 starts and stops a day. This is deadly to a battery, shortens life a lot and now the alternator has to work harder. Also your body takes a hit when the AC comes back on after the temperature has risen 20 deg. The biological jolt to your body due to the rapidly changing temps depletes your immune system and leaves you short of energy. And leaves your respiratory system in distress. All this just to save a few drops of petrol. And people subjected to this constant barrage of body assaults due to ASS is a major contributor to road rage. Of course the gov will not tell you that. The extra components made for this system assures that ASS is a major contributor to excess auto emissions in the extra materials, the extra manufacturing steps and the increased wear on critical car components. Air pollution is well and truly in the west under control and is not a health factor even in places like NYC.
