NHTSA Complaint #11499855 — 2018 FORD F-150

Unknown Mykey has me hostage. When I purchased my vehicle they only had 1 key. Not realizing that setting up the MyKey for my vehicle, I would be putting myself and others that drive on the road with me grave danger. I purchased my truck in March of 2019 and I the fall of 2021 I didn’t think nothing of it by setting up the Mykey for my Ford F-150. Well without further a due I realized that the restrictions that the Mykey puts on there owners. Driving on the freeway or anywhere one may have to pass another vehicle quickly . Hang onto your hat because the speedometer stops at 80 and you just might find yourself between an on coming vehicle and the vehicle you were trying to get around before he thought about not allot you to… In the last 15 months there’s been to many near misses because of the MyKey restrictions on my speedometer… Ford says they can’t turn the Mykey off without another key….They ant my to pay $400.00 for a spare key… They need an Administration Mykey Key & standard Mykey key to delete the mykey functions. Now to me, that doesn’t make since what so ever to be able to set up the Mykey function with only 1 Key when you need 2 to Defunction them.
