RESOLVED What is the Chime sound after getting into the car after a few seconds

[Lavenchi]

After getting into the car after it's been asleep for awhile there is a chiming sound that plays for 1-2 seconds. I assume it's the car trying to notify me of something but nothing pops up on any of the screens when it happens, I tried asking Alexa if there was a notification but no luck. Does anyone know what it is?

I still have not heard this sound at all. Strange.

Are we sure folks haven't had their speed limit detection warnings accidentally reset to on? I don't think that's the same sound, but maybe they've changed it?

Well, it happened as I was sitting down in the car while parked, so definitely not a speed limit thing.

For me it happens before I start driving.

 

[Boomer AZ]

Same issue.

 

[PS~L]

I heard the sound too and thought it was signalling the car is starting up and engaging....

Me too, usually, but today it happened when I pulled into the garage.

I’ve noticed this as well since the .42 update. It’s always within a few seconds of getting in the car. My hypotheses have been that it indicates recognition of the appropriate profile, successful loading of the profile preferences, or that the the system has completed the boot up process. But I’m judging this solely from the timing of when I hear the sound.

The mystery thickens... thanks to this thread, those who haven't heard it yet are now looking to hear it in their cars to help solve this mystery. It's like the reflective glare issue where you just ignore it until someone points it out.

I've been noticing this sound too. It used to freak me out, sounding as if was getting some warning, but I never see anything on the dash and now I just ignore it.

Maybe the chime indicates achievement of maximum robustness. Those who don’t hear it have some robustifying to do.

I did turn off the terrible interaction noises on my vehicle.. maybe the sound is tied to that setting?

I’ll take “geofencing activation for Homelink” for $1,000!

Good thought, but I do not have any Homelink items program.

 

[Adnillien]

I heard it for the first time today after stopping at the store on my way home from work.

 

[NanoGauntlet]

I hear the chime every time I get into my car as well before stepping on the brake pedal to go into full drive mode. I also thought it was for an notification, but just now ignore it when it goes off.

No. Mine are set to very quiet, but still on.

 

[hydbob]

Here's the real question, have any ANDROID users gotten this chime?

 

[lucidtouringman]

Android user here...as others hearing this chime...Also I do NOT have .43...I'm still on .42

 

[PS~L]

Holiday cheers~chimes?!!

 

[Lucken]

Are the chimes a precursor to the fart sound?
