Something weird happened
The other night I was driving through a neighborhood trying to find an address, and I slightly passed the street I was supposed to turn on. There were no cars behind me so I put the car in reverse so I could go back and make the turn on the proper street. This is where things got weird, when I went to put the car back in drive it stalled out on me, like if it was a manual or something.
The car was still moving slightly in reverse and I had my foot on the brake, but I shifted into drive before the car had come to a complete stop and it just stalled out. Engine was completely off but everything in the car was still on. I shifted into N, R, D to see if anything would work and nothing the car just sat there. on the dash all the lights were on, CEL, ABS, TRAC, everything, it was really weird. I turned the car off and restarted it and then everything was normal again. The car only had about 600-700 miles on the ODO when this happened, has anyone else experienced this?

I don't own a RC F, but while researching its capabilities I read that it's equipped with a vertical g-sensor that somehow manages brake control. Perhaps the squatting action from putting into drive while still moving backwards tripped the vertical g-sensor and brake control was initiated, but never released until your restarted. Just a wild guess on my part.

Not on my RCF but I used to experience something like this on my VW CC back in 2012, back then they used to blame it on the tranny which is a dual clutch automatic DSG (felt like manual). What I do notice is that when you place the RCF on reverse you have to step slightly on the gas to make it move quick...I will say is the tranny playing tricks on you lol
