Horn honks three times

[Jsw2son]

Twice I've been driving down the road , about 50mph, and out of the blue my horn blasts three quick blasts. The first time I noticed warning or collision flash on control panel. I don't have the 360 eyesight package. Stock '23 XLT Hybrid.
Thanks for any comments and all the great info on this site

Hi there! Would you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location? I’d like to look into this concern on my end.

Did you have this on the radio?

weird, never heard of that.
The collision avoidance is red flashing lights and beeps inside the truck, not horn.

Mine has honked when I'm dropping off my son.

As soon as he opens the door it honks.

It's only happened 4 or 5 times, but kinda odd-

Had it happen randomly after putting the truck in park without turning off the vehicle.

Door open and its not off or in park?

Yes, I pull over and drop him off in drive, with my foot on the brake-

I don't trust the brake hold when he's getting out of the truck...

I've had occasional goofy things occur that seem like soft errors on the CAN bus. My fuel filler door (XLT hybrid) once opened in my driveway while I was loading some gear into the bed. Last week I was at Home Depot and locked the truck with the fob. When I was 50 feet away, it honked once. When I was 100 ft away, the alarm triggered. This makes me wonder if someone nearby was monitoring my RF emissions and hacking the locks. I might consider using the keypad in that lot in the future.
