Have a 2022 Limited 1500, with 2400 miles. Have the etorque hemi. A few weeks ago I have been having the sound of a bell ringing three times and within 20 seconds rings three times again. Nothing shows up on radio screen or odometer screen indicating a problem.
Stopped at local CDJR dealer yesterday and they plugged their code reader in, it came back "no problems". They took the truck for a spin around the building and heard the three dings one time but said they had no idea what the problem is.
Thoughts? Ideas?
Kind of annoying at this point and would like to have the problem fixed.

My truck is a 2015 so maybe completely different but the passenger seat belt warning is up by the rear view mirror. Next time it beeps look at passenger seat belt warning light to see if it's on. Could be it's malfunctioning.

Red light camera alert. Are you near stop lights that have red light cameras when this happens. Also could be speed or traffic congestion alert. Whatever the case, the alerts are coming from the TomTom factory navigation. Pull up the factory maps screen, and next time you hear it, there will be a sidebar that pops up on the screen that tells you what it is. They can be configured in the navigation settings.

Well that is cool to know. I have never heard those because I have the alerts turned off on both my FCA products. I am going to check out the red light camera feature and see if it is on my 8.4 in the 2500.

Wonder why the dealer didn't know that.

It’s also mentioned in that packet of paperback book type things that the manufacturer usually sticks in the glovebox of vehicles (that’s usually where I go to get the information when people ask stuff like this).

I have actually read mine cover to cover a couple of times but don't remember that bit. Mind you there is a ton of info and my memory isn't as good as it once was.

It is alerting you that there is a red light camera coming up at the next intersection. You can go into the nav settings and turn it off or have it actually speak ‘red light camera’ as well. On the Nav screen it should show a graphic of a red light on the intersection.

A side note, at the bottom of the navigation settings screen, you can change it to visual only alert if you still want the alert with no sound.

I checked the 2021 2500 and the 2020 cherokee. Both have the 8.4 with navy. Neither seems to have this red light, school zone options and it isn't in the owners manuals that I can find either. What nav and year have you got that does that. I know the OPs is a 2022.

Not to be disagreeable but my truck does the same three chimes at start up and I live about 20km on a backroad out of a town that has only one stop light with no red light camera. It does three chimes when I do venture into the city with red light cameras everywhere. Freaked me out when it first happened and continued to happen lol. Little bit of a mystery to me as well.

It's an indicator that a red light camera is ahead!
