[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1828244, member: 25884"] When I bought the 2012 explorer from my parents estate, turns out my father had the key he gave my mother programmed to not allow the vehicle to go over 80... that's all well fine and good until you are trying to pass another vehicle in heavy traffic that is going 75 plus to start with... and you want to get by a truck and get over with people on your bumper.... I could not believe it ; found out about it from my brother, because my son was having a fit telling me I was crazy when I couldn't get the explorer to go any faster... felt like the gas pedal just wasn't giving it any more gas trying to pass some big trucks doing 75 + , and then he talked to my brother and he said oh yeah, father did that so mother couldn't drive too fast... I did get it taken off at the ford place, they put it on the computer and "unlocked" the restriction... it is scary to be going along and a truck is on your arse, another next to you and you can't get it to go into a "passing gear" to get past the one in the lane next to you so you can get over... heavy traffic.... not a position I ever want to be in again.... So they have been doing it for over 10 years at least. [/QUOTE]
