Hey WS Fiesta Zetec owners. The other day I noticed when cruising above 130 km/h that the Fiesta puts out a faint beep. I initially thought it was a fault, but every time I broke through the 130 "barrier" it beeped.
Anyone else get this and know why Ford has done this? |

Unless it's disabled on one of the software updates they all do it at 130, I guess some people are just more deaf than others. Ours has done it from new and still does
