I have start/stop on my 2014 Malibu and the biggest problem is getting the engine to shutoff when you stop. Maybe in the 2016 MY GM will work the start/stop strategy so it works better. For my 2014 Cruze, I simply shut it off if I know a light is going to last more than 10 seconds. Since my Cruze is a daily driver to and from work, I know all the lights I have to stop at and I know the long and short ones. As far as wear and tear on the starter, we'll see. However, I do try my best to time the lights so I don't get caught by them.
