MyKey is a security system from Ford Motor Company that allows controlled use of a car with a configurable key. This technology is targeted at parents who wish to share their car with adolescent or young adult drivers. Keys may be configured with a variety of settings, such as limiting the top speed to 80 MPH, to limit the volume of the car’s stereo, or to mute the car audio system until seat belts are buckled.

Ford Motors has announced that MyKey will be a standard feature of the 2010 Ford Focus, and Ford has announced plans to eventually include it on all models.
