Get what done?

Heroku replaced their wildcard certificate in plenty of time but many customers do not anticipate anything changing ever and will fiercely resist this simple fact, so for those customers stuff blew up.

Remember the Y2K problem is the result of software written not in 1901 or even just 1981 but even well into the 1990s with the calm certainty that all years begin 19xx.

Heroku can try brown out policies, but this sort of customer intransigence is very difficult to defeat. The customer is quite certain they're right, who ever heard of "change" anyway? Everyone knows that the world is a flat plane, fixed in space, eternal and unchanging, this pinning rule I wrote in 2019 worked then, therefore it is still correct now.
