Errrr didn't realize you had a friend in the car. Did they have their seat belt on?

When my friend was with me we both had seatbelts on. Happened again this morning with just me in the car and nothing/no one in the passenger seat.

I'll have Subaru take a look at this, I need to bring her in for the 6 month overall service anyway. Just need to live with the annoying sound for now.

No dash lights with it? Like I said unhook your battery for a couple of minutes and then hook it back up. It may reset whatever is dinging.

No dash lights, just the dinging. I'll unhook the battery later tonight when I get home and see if that works. Thanks for the tip.

Hope it works. That would drive me nuts!

If you take it to the dealer, report back. Now I'm super curious.

Only other would be something weird with the HU in which case I would just unhook the battery for a minute and see if it goes away.

Don't try to unhook the battery until you are stopped though.

I'm gathering you're in the passenger seat with incontinence or a small bladder. Wait until you get home or bring along a urinal.

Update:

Unhooked the battery for about 5 mins and then let the car idle for about 15 mins after reconnecting. Chime was gone.

I have the car at service right now and did mention the chime to the service rep. He's going to try to replicate it to find out what it was. Will keep you guys posted.

Thanks for the help.
