Beeping at highway speeds. someone please help.

[Chris freeman]

I have a 2019 Ram 1500 limited, I love the truck but there is a beeping a highway speeds and its quite literally driving me insane. I know there were a couple other threads on here but I never got a solid answer and the dealership "hasn't seen this before". I brought it in and after over a WEEK of having my truck they said that my windshield wasn't sealed properly and what I'm hearing is wind noise and not a beeping (I know what me and my friends are hearing is a beeping). I think that either the tech that test drove the truck didn't want to do the electronic work it took to fix it or maybe he is hard of hearing. I have a full bumper to bumper warranty on the truck that covers everything electronic but if you've ever dealt with dealerships you know they will do anything to not actually do work unless you pay. Enough yapping, here's the issue. So, I do a lot of highway driving and I usually cruise at 75-85 mph depending on traffic; most of the time its 80. Any time I go over 70-75 there is a beeping chime constantly beeping. Every. Single. Time. Its not a on/off issue. Its every time I drive. It sounds just like someone was tapping the screen as fast as they could, Its that same chime sound. A couple days ago it was very windy out side and it was beeping at a low of 50 MPH. After dealing with it for a while I think it has something to do with outside noise, wind noise, something... Every time it gets loud in wind noise weather its windy or I drive fast the beeping gets louder and faster. It is also worse when the radio is on. No, if the radio is off it does not stop. I've also turned off the setting that makes the radio louder the faster you drive, that's not it. I've tried re-setting the truck. I've tried everything. I honestly don't know what to do which is why I've resorted to this forum and I'm really hoping someone has an answer for me. I hate that I spend all this money on a super nice truck and I have to deal with this issue. It is like torture driving hours everyday and hearing a constant beeping that you cant control. Its so loud the radio doesn't even cover it up. Someone please help, I'm begging lol.

As far as I can tell, you're saying that the beeping is not coming from the speakers, right? Can you record a video (or just audio) of this and post it?

yeah dude for sure. I couldn't tell you where the sound comes from. It you tap your screen in your truck that's where it comes from. If that makes sense.

think you can only load videos thru a you tube link

 

[Scap]

Try opening a window when it is beeping.
Might be some sort of ANC issue.

 

[cerbo]

could you have any speed warning set in the navigation somewhere if that s possible. I had a similar issue and it was the vehicles " Red light camera" detector. Really, it goes off any time I m approaching a red light that has the camera violation system. Took me a week to figure that one out. My sales person had no idea what the beep was, LOL. Interested....

 

[cerbo]

BTW, that system beeps even when I do not have an address active in the navigation. ???

Upload to you-tube and insert a link to it.

Maybe the dealer tech is correct and it's weather dependant and not an electrical issue.

You don't have a "bumper to bumper" warranty either. You have a limited service contract.

 

[cerbo]

I thought I remember reading about a firewall seam not produced correctly causing sounds???

 

[ae5573t]

Cerbo is probably right. My truck did the same thing. Had to go into settings menu to disable the speed warning.

Are you sure it's not a chime? Mine did the chime thing with the front and rear parking sensors. There's a TSB for that and it would do it while driving down the freeway (when the parking sensors should be unconcerned with parking!

 

[jkm312]

Just a hail Mary to consider. Are the sensors in the bumpers clean? At highway speeds, they can get plugged up with bugs and such. Car wash may not be enough, have to hand clean them. Is their a crack in the windshield near the sensor in front of the mirror. In our Maxima when the front end gets caked with wet snow and ice we loose the all of the cruise control, front radar and the car just generally throws a snit fit until I clean them out. Gotta love winter!

what is a “limited service contract”? i paid an extra 6 grand or something for a 130,000 mile platinum extended warranty.

yeah, i looked at the entire windshield and there were no cracks in that area and my sensors are clean.

I looked through all the settings, everything like that including the red light camera detector is turned off.
