If I am not using ACC Stop and Go, I use Auto Hold in bumper to bumper traffic or creeping up hill in bumper to bumper traffic. This allows me to just use the gas pedal to move forward or release the gas pedal to brake. I don't see any long term issues, it is simply an automated system for hitting the brake, the same as I would if it was off. Mark, not sure if this is what you are referring to with "E Brake". The parking brake is electronic and is the button above Auto H as explained in the video. Personally, I never see a need to engage it. If it was a 6-speed manual, maybe.
It's very useful. These cars if equipped have so many driver assistance functions that are so useful if you remember to use them. I suspect many people don't. When you shut down the car and restart, it defaults back to off.
