No one tells you when you buy the car all of the shit you are agreeing to. This needs to be changed.
This car doesn’t let you drive over 80mph. It reads speed limit signs and has a database apparently. The owners manual says it will provide that data to law enforcement.
This is insane. There needs to be awareness of this so people can, at the very least, know to ask before they buy. As it stands no one even knows this shit until they sign the papers and look at the owners manual.
Also all these things he talks about you can just turn off lol.
Don’t want the car to send data? Turn it off…
Don’t want the speed limiter to be on? Turn it off…
Can you point to evidence that you can disable the speed limiter? I couldn’t find anything except in a Mustang forum that said the only way was through a hardware tuner.
Have you actually verified whether you can turn this connectivity off? I know on other new cars it’s embedded in the electronics with no on/off button.
And how do we know the dealer isn’t going to turn it back on after every service visit?
But they’re all ON by default, right?
