tiguan ignition will turn itself off and make you restart

Tiguan ignition will turn itself off without even pressing the key-less ignition button. It will show up on the drivers screen that it is turning itself off. Only happens when vehicle is stopped on the road and brake is fully pressed. It has randomly happened at stop lights or stop sign and the car is in "drive position", not in "park". I then quickly place vehicle in park, hit the start button with brake pedal pressed and car starts again, then throw it into drive position again. It annoys the hell out of me and people behind are honking for me to move.

During one of the occurrences I was on incline in "drive position", and started to press accelerator and did not move forward, then my display quickly showed that the ignition turned off and car went rolling backwards. Had to re-apply brakes and place in park and restart the ignition button again. Glad no one was behind me.
