2024 Mustang GT PP, had it for 6 days…

Well, there’s always that speed limiter that’s attached to the end of your right leg!

I‘ll never forget being stopped by a very young MP about four feet tall on Hwy 98 in the FL panhandle a few years ago. Now Hwy 98 is a major US route where the speed limit is up and down every few miles and I had just unknowingly slipped onto the Tyndall base part. The little MP said he had me going 3 mph over the limit and literally launched himself into a tirade about how I was endangering the fine fighting men and women of our country, yada yada yada. After about 7 or 8 minutes of self-important Caesar complex pontificating I politely asked the guy if he could just give me my 3 over ticket and skip the lecture. He looked shocked and finally let me off this serious offense.

When I get pulled over I just pull out my "Get out of jail" card. If that doesn't work I always have a couple dozen donuts handy, if it's in the morning. I just tell them I'm late, hungry, and if they don't mind me eating one while he/she writes the ticket.

Really!! I drove on military installations for over 20 years and never needed a speed limiter to help me obey the posted speed limits.

As have I. I was just giving a valid use case for it. Probably the only use case honestly.

There is that speed limiter attached to my right leg. That limiter has also been know to not pay attention to the signs leaving base where the speed limit unnecessarily drops from 35 to 15. I like not having to deal with their Ceasar complexes of it can be avoided, especially now that I am a contractor vice in uniform.

Glad you're okay. It was mentioned in another thread that there is a known issue with the warning you got. Other owners said they got the warning that it was disabled and after that it was activating for no reason. I have noticed my light comes on often in the morning but it seems to go out after a minute or two. Definitely doesn't need a key cycle to reset. Good luck.

Had my new Mustang for 6 days. Owned a 2015 for years and never once had a close call, same with my 2020 Supra. First week of the 2024 and I lost control driving straight on a highway during mild acceleration in normal mode on dry roads.

Don’t know if a tire popped, wheel was damaged, tie rod snapped, or maybe some other odd reason or mistake I made. Dashcam was in the mail, and not a single car that was around me stopped to see if I was okay so all I have is a memory of hitting a minor hump in the road and then the vehicle jerked left and I was unable to get it back straight after it veered left and lost control into a guardrail.

Other odd thing was about a mile before I got a notification regarding the front camera being obstructed and collision assist wasn’t available, but not sure if this is related.

What’s everyone’s thoughts? Is she totaled? Anyone experience or seen anything like this?

Yep,
It’s completely totaled.
You are very lucky to be alive.
The Frame has to be messed up.
Good Luck
