Default Engine not shutting off

I had the habbit to turn off automatic engine shutting off at red traffic signals...I find now the engine doesnt shut off itself automatically even if I dont shut off the feature...Is this normal?

It depends on a plethora of factors.

Temperature outside versus in.
Vehicle angle
Electrical Demands
Temp outside (if very hot/humid)
12V battery load/current demands/SOC (state of charge), etc.

etc etc.

E.g. don't worry about it.

In my Jeep it stopped working. The dash said it was unable due to low (secondary) battery.

This is when it is good to have your location in your profile.
If you are in the US there is a large heat wave for most of the country so I would not expect the car to shut off...
