Good device works 99% of the time
Bought it for my 2019 Chevy Blazer RS. Performs as expected 99% of the time. Every once in a while, and this is relatively rare but I've had it happen on more than one occasion, few and far between though, so it's not one isolated incident, but it is rare, it seems to miss the cycle and the "auto stall" (my name for it lol) engages within the start cycle. It beats any other alternative to solve this manaufacturer designed annoyance (that was rectified in later models with an on/off switch). Notably, with other vehicles I own or have driven that contain this "feature" ("auto stall") that use a disable button require you to push the button within every new start cycle to re-engage the disabling of the "feature." In that sense, having this attached is better because it is working continuously (99% of the time anyway).

Auto Stop Gone!
Plugged it into the OBD2 port of my 2020 Traverse and the annoying Auto Stop was gone. Has not affected operation of anything else as far as I can tell. Remote start functions normally as does everything else. It is an LS, so it doesn't have any fancy stuff. It will drain your battery if it is plugged in and the car is not driven for a couple weeks. Pull it out if you will not be driving the car or use the remote start to charge up the battery. Auto Stop gave me the willies when trying to pull into traffic quickly. They say the starter is designed for it, but you can't cycle something 20 time the normal usage and not wear it out faster.

Does EXACTLY what I hoped - stops the automatic start/stop at redlights!!! 2018 Cadillac XT-5
After YEARS of frustration, I figured I would spend the couple hundred dollars and give this a shot. IT WORKS!!! I just plugged it in and like magic - my car no longer does the auto start/stop turning itself off at every freaking intersection. I saw some people complain that theirs stopped working - and a few weeks later, mine stopped working, BUT, all I had to do was unplug it and plug it back in (to reset it?) and it was as good as new and worked perfectly again. I HIGHLY recommend.

Works for 2019 Chevy Malibu
As of right now it's working for auto stop on Chevy Malibu 2019 so far I like it but I have watched this product of last few months and went from 150 ish to 220 something so bit price change but over all so far so good

Didn't work.
We were told this would work on our 2020 Equinox and it did not work at all. We were really disappointed because we do not like the start stop feature on the car. It was disappointing that it didn't work.

Great fix for the stupid design of auto shut off
The idiots who came up with auto shut off are completely clueless and need slapped. It’s hard on your engine and engines use more fuel to start than to just idle for short periods of time. Seems like the newer “technology” is garbage and we need to go back to 2006 with the lbz duramax and 6.0 vortec with ecm’s that actually work and engines that actually run good. Except for the scrapyard junk ford was producing and is still producing. This product did a great job of fixing the blooper of auto shut off.

Works
Does NOT allow auto fuel management (AFM) to switch to V4 mode, as it is suppose to.Used to switch to V4 a lot during city driving, SAVING FUEL!V4 mode on the highway constantly switching to V8.1-2 mpg loss with this installed but has positive potential to avoid very expensive valve train repairs from poorly designed system.Additionally, has reduced my oil consumption associated with this AFM POORLY DESIGNED SYSTEM.Such a shame GM couldn’t make this fuel saving system work properly without ruining your engine.
