This just started happening moments ago. I only have tested at low speeds in my neighborhood. When making ONLY left turns, never on right turns, the dash area over the steering while makes a tri tone chime. It's the beep-beep-beep you hear when you drive without a seatbelt or start up the vehicle but it only happens once whereas those tend to happen three times in a row (for a total of nine chimes at a time). I googled it and couldn't find anything. What in the world could this mean?!

think I had that same problem. Drove me nuts all afternoon while I was all over the place picking up parts, beer, etc. Probably food I suppose.

I finally figured it out. The passenger door wasn't closed tight. Damn, it was telling me on the dash. "Close the damn door" I think it said. I guess I was too busy watching the speedometer, tach, and radio. And looking out the windows. :facepalm:

Seriously, the passenger door wasn't shut properly.

I thought you were going to say you fixed it by making right turns. ??

First time it happened, I didn’t see the message about the door being ajar on my SCrew. Turned out I hadn’t closed the back door fully and the front door and my weight pushed it just slightly on turns. I have to make sure I close the door firmly because it still looks closed and I still get the chimes once in a while
