3 Unknown beeps or dings any idea?
 
I started my vehicle today and as I drove off I heard 3 dings or beeps then they stopped. This is the 2nd time i've heard this but can't figure out what it is. Anyone have any idea?

TIA

My does it when the outside temp is below 37F.

Did they happen close to top of the hour?

It might be the memo function on the OBC. If set to beep, it will sound 3 times 15 seconds before each hour.

I thought about that, but it wasn't that cold.

If it is set this way (and it is, by default), the OBC warns you when outside temp falls below 37F. It is the ice warning which tells you ice may be present on the road surface. I believe the dealer can turn it off.

It wasn't below 37F. It was about 60F so that couldn't be it.
