do-da-do

Ok...so I'm driving down the road today in my 2011 KR 6.7 and on two occasions I hear a muffled three note tone [kinda like do-da-do]. I know it wasn't the navigation, radio, door, etc. I ran the system check and it appears that everything is ok.

Anyone else had this experience?

The satellite radio has an alert sound if you or someone else has set it up to alert if a certain song or artist is being aired.

The door chime/message center alert sounds like the NBC Television 3 note ding (Major 6th followed by a major 3rd). If it dings for no apparent reason, that would be strange.

Do you have the latest flash, specifically for trucks built on or before 11/5/10?

Here is the link: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...10-23-9-a.html

There are random alerts/engine lights that Ford keeps fixing and updating.

Any dash lights?
Mine would make that type of chime say if the TPMS went to alert.

Traffic Alert?

From the travel center option?
I remember hearing a tone. Looked down, and saw a "tree" down message on my highway.... Warning

It was the satellite radio

The sound was a satellite radio alert...I happened to me looking at the screen when it alerted to an artist on another channel.

Thanks to all.
