Lately, I've noticed two "chimes" more-or-less when I start the truck, but there are no notifications, lights, or the like that the chimes would be calling my attention toward. Initially, I thought that it was a soft reminder to put on my seatbelt since I have the actual nanny-state turned off, but that's not it b/c I was wearing my belt when it chimed last. Sometimes the chimes come when I'm parked waiting to put the truck in reverse, others I'm already rolling. Nothing seems to be in error, but I'd like to know what it's telling me. Any ideas?

I have noticed this as well after some recent updates! I have not been able to figure it out either? It seems to be kind of random because I don’t think it happens each time and I checked my dash for anything and didn’t see anything either.
Maybe parking brake?-just thought of it. I will see if that is it next time I am starting it up.

I had similar, disabling the traffic alerts in the Nav settings got rid of it for me.
Hmmm…
That’s strange that it would chime sitting in my driveway where there is no traffic😂🤣😂
I will look into that thanks!

I've been getting the random chimes as well. Usually when I start out in the morning. I figure it is just Ford letting me know that they care for my safety.

Wouldn't it be nice if they let us turn the chimes off. They let us turn off the seatbelt chime. Why not the tailgate chime, the frunk chime.
