Occasional beep sound while driving

[coreymd]

This is just a PSA for anyone searching here for info and coming up empty like I did.

On regular road driving I was hearing a short, double beep every now and then. I only have the standard package, so I was pretty sure it wasn't lane assist or any technical feature of the Bronco, which led me to think I might need to bring it in for diagnosis.

But I eventually realized it only happened on rough patches in the road or when hitting potholes. Thankfully, I finally found this post on the Bronco Sport forum:

https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/electronic-beep.5434/

The answer: my dash cam was beeping to tell me it had recorded an 'incident', triggered by the jolt it detected. Disabling or reducing the sensitivity of that dash cam feature should fix the problem...

And many thanks to the contributors in that other forum!

Kinda like this?:

Yes! Except it's much less amusing when it happens 5 times per drive.

Have you checked the smoke detector battery?

I have dash cams on all my vehicles, and I have gotten the same on my Mustang, but that car is lowered with a stiffer suspension. Haven't had it occur in my Bronco.
