Loud Horn noise from my Audio System

[Rmalone]

Today when I started my Maverick, a very loud horn blast came out of the speakers. After that I had no audio.
I drive a 2023 Lariat Lux Hybrid.
Has anyone else experienced this and do you know how I can get my audio back?

I immediately turned off audio and it stopped. I turned off vehicle. Restarted and it was gone. Has not happened again for ten days so far.

Also, try rebooting the Infotainment system.
Hold down Power & Next Track buttons until it reboots.

After sitting in the parking lot at work for about 5 hours, the Audio returned when I started it to go home. I had restarted the truck several times when it first happened, but the audio did not come back until it sat there for several hours.

Mine was instantaneous when l shut it all down as it was happening. I thought spaceman were landing. Noise was very loud and weird. Please let us know what Ford has to say.

I had the same thing happen in my 23 hybrid lariat lux. I think it was back in September and I posted about it. It happened again today. It happened a few times even after restarting the truck and changing audio sources. Different sounds from last time and each time it happened today. It was so loud I literally had to get out and go get my hearing protection. When I got back and restarted the truck it was back to normal. I'm keeping the hearing protection handy in the passenger seat for when it happens again and I'll try to get a video. Maybe with a video of the problem it would make a case so I can take it do the dealer to try and figure it out. It sounds like there may be a widespread issue. Has anyone gotten a resolution on this?

Happened to me once. Shut car off. stopped. never happened again. It was scary at the time. Asked my dealer and they go "we have so few of these come in, so we haven't heard this one yet"

Yeah I figured if I brought it in it wouldn't really get anywhere. No way to reliably reproduce it. Anyway I sent ford info about it on the forums hopefully if they get enough reports about the problem they'll be able to get to the bottom of it.

F-150 truck owners have reported a similar issue. Maybe related? There is a TSB in that situation.
