Random honking while unlocked

[Chuck-a-roo]

My 2025 Lariat Hybrid AWD just started honking continuously while parked in our garage unlocked. I couldn't find a previous thread, so I'm asking for help. The doors and tailgate were closed. Has anyone seen this before and have any advice?

Where's the key fob
Inside the Mav
Inside your house

Mine did this yesterday as I was getting out of it

Keys are in the truck as always, power is off, my door has been open for 15 seconds or so, and the horn starts honking for no reason

(2) Horn honks every couple minutes after locking? | MaverickTruckClub - 2022+ Ford Maverick Pickup Forum, News, Owners, Discussions

The Mavericks alarm , as well as other models may honk randomly if there is a bad door or hood switch ... which happens

Cheers

you may have hit the horn button on fob

It is telling you the keys are in the truck. Is it a push button start or key start? My 2024 Lariat will do that if I leave the keys in it when off and open then close the driver door. Never left the fob in it for an hour to see if it continued, I immediately opened the door and retrieved the fob.

It's a 25 Lariat. The keys are ALWAYS in the truck, and it's never honked at me before

Key fob battery going bad?

Key fob battery going bad?

It's 3 months old, and we picked it up on arrival from Mexico so I doubt it

The key fob was inside the house about 20 feet away from the truck.
I use the truck to carry 2 sets of golf clubs and 2 push carts. While golfing, I keep the key inside my golf bag. When I return to the truck, I have to retrieve the key before it will allow me to unlock the truck and my golf bag was near the tailgate.
The truck has 2500 miles and is 3 1/2 months old.
The alarm did shut off when I pushed the red alarm button on the key fob.
Thanks!

Thanks for responding! This happened at 4:30 in the morning! It has the push button start. I never leave the key inside the truck. This was continuous honking for over 5 minutes after it awakened my wife and she woke me up!

Hi, I'm sure I didn't sleep walk and push the button on the key fob! This happen at 4:30 in the morning.

Hi, I am not a tech guy -- just an old man. How can I check if there was an update done?

I always leave my fob in the Maverick, at home, for all 9 months of ownership and it has never honked at me.

My guess, accidently pushed the Alarm button then

It just wanted to say, "Get out here and drive me!!"
