It beeps when it's done.

It beeps when you press the button.

It beeps when you place it on the base.

But today, it beeps no more.


I classify this as a repair.

My car has no fewer than five different beeps when starting up. Sometimes it just keeps beeping forever. It did when I went to see it for the first time. I was trying it and stopped at a light, and it just kept beeping. Forever. The sales person had no idea why. I wanted it so badly, it’s pre-spyware car but the beeps were untenable. Spent 20 minutes looking up what the f is up with it. I found an obscure old forum post where someone had complained about the overly sensitive sensors and there’s a secret tiny hidden button that doesn’t feel like a real car button when you press it and it mutes them until you restart the car. I found it, pressed it, and the beeps went away.

I’ve had the car for a decade now and the beeps persist, lest I press the “beepn’t” button, and yknow… that’s alright. I wouldn’t trade it for anything, but that’s a hilariously bad design flaw.
