Auto stop

Have you referenced the owner's manual to make sure it is meeting all criteria?
It won't keep working if the car doesn't get over a certain speed. It won't work if the car isn't warmed up. It won't work at certain ambient temperatures (too cold or too hot). It won't work in Sport mode. There are other criteria, I don't remember them all.
If there is no warning message saying "Auto-Start Service Required", there is likely no fault with it.

Thanks for the reply. As you mentioned, there are a ton of conditions that have to be met in order for it to work. I've eliminated the obvious ones so now I have to work my way down the list.
The odd thing is that it worked fine for the first 4 weeks but now has stopped working. When the engine restarts after an auto stop, it's pretty rough compared to our Camry Hybrid which isn't the end of the world but I can see some people disabling the function so they don't have to put up with the roughness.

We drove 660 miles today and it worked a number of times but not others. I thought the original problem was that the fan was running on high but today, the engine stopped with the fan on high.
At least I know it's working and probably the way it's intended. I have not found anywhere in the menu where you can track the reasons. When I went into My Car, the Auto Start selection would say "not available" without going into detail.
