Because there is a problem with engine or gearbox etc. Limp mode was designed so you can still drive your vehicle with just enough speed to get it up on a lorry for repair.
Limp mode or (limp-in mode or limp-home mode)occurs when your computer in your car is not communicating with the sensors on your engine. On some cars(volkswagon Passat for example) If you disconnect the battery then the computer will lose all of the settings and will go into limp-in mode. The car will have little power and a top speed of only about 30 miles per hour. The function of limp-in mode is to get you to a place that can repair the car but the car is barely driveable.

limp home mode is a fail safe mode on Mercedes vehicles which allows you to be able to drive a reasonable distance without necessarily damaging your engine. Most of the electronically operated parts driven by the MV belt can work on manual mode. while this is not ideal for performance it is meant to allow you to get the car to safety and a service station hence the phrase "limp home"
I believe it's called "Limp Mode", not "Safe Mode". The Car doesn't want to shift, so it's like in 2nd gear all the time. That's "Limp Mode" or Limp Home Mode. -- It cost me 3,000.00 to find out the 50.00 processor was bad.
Most VW's only go into limp mode if there is a very serious problem. Limp mode is there to protect the engine, not to be an inconvenience. To disable limp mode would be to allow the engine to self destruct.
Limp home mode is just as it sounds. It goes to a preset load of values to allow the car to get you "limp" home or to the repair service. All engine and transmission performace is reduced. There is no such thing as a "turbo limp module".
You have to repair the cause of the code that put it in limp mode.
is limp mode is when you put the car on donks or on 3 wheels using hydrolics
