How do I stop the beeps? Any time I open the driver’s door, it just beeps and beeps and beeps. It only stops when I shut it. Which, you know, ok I’ll shut the door. But sometimes it needs to hang open for a like while and it just beeps forever.

Then there’s the lesser beeps when the infotainment system is syncing up and popping up all those messages on the dash. It’s not all that bad but usually by then I’m already bothered by the door beeps.

is there a way to get it to stop beeping so much?

Need some clarity...

I'm assuming you mean the warning chimes inside ding when the door is open and the ignition is on? No seat buckled?

Headlights on? There is a bug in the headlight switch that sometimes turns them on if you have them set to automatic. The work-around is to turn the switch off, then back to automatic. ??

Are you leaving your keys in the ignition? Have you turned the headlights off? Those are the first two things that come to mind ?
Sorry, as long as you’ve turned off the car before exiting, there’s no reason for it to beep.

I'm thinking if it's ignition on, no seat buckled, you're going to get the seatbelt warning before you buckle it. That can be disabled with Forscan. The following dings for each warning aren't able to be disabled that I'm aware of except maybe the door ajar warning. I wouldn't disable that.

Both ignition on and off. Both buckle states. It just kinda stats and doesn’t stop until I close the door. Even if I exit with the keys in my pocket and the door stays open.

Oh. Good point, it might be this. I’ll cycle the headlights and report back.

That sounds like headlights stuck on.

Headlights on auto and something causes the car to lose its mind. Turn the headlights to off then back to auto and the beeps will go away. This has happened to me a couple of times. Its super annoying and I seem to forget every time that its a simple twist of the headlight switch to clear it up.
