Lincoln chime changing to Ford chime

[Mideastern13]

Hi everyone,
Anyone is experiencing change in alarm chimes in aviator 21 to ford alarm chime? My dealer could know what the problem.

Any suggestions?

Yes, the dealer could know what the problem.

The dealer suspected cluster mulfunction. They resolved it but the problem still exists.

Then they did not resolve it. Have you taken it back?

Many times. I’m think to sell this car because of this annoying problem.

What is the "Ford chime"?

I was thinking the same thing when I read this. Is this referring to the sounds the vehicle makes at startup, when a door is opened, etc.?

That is what I am guessing.

In my case, my Navigator has, from time to time, had the seat belt chime and any other subsequent warming sounds, inexplicably, come through only one speaker behind the steering wheel. This will last through an entire ignition cycle. Lincoln can't figure it out, or just doesn't care.

I probably wouldn't even recognize a tone/chime change unless it stopped altogether.

Ah, yes, gotcha. Of course, my wife's Explorer sounds like that. That is what my Nav reverts back to as well in occasion, as I described above.

Ridonculous, and Ford/Lincoln just don't care.

When the "Symphonic chimes" that are supposed to come through all of the Revel speakers suddenly only come through what sounds like one paper cone speaker, you would probably notice that.

The Lincoln chime sounds MUCH more sophisticated.... I'd definitely pursue this with a Concierge manager at Lincoln.

Yres, you should definitely sell it because you don't like the chime.

Looks like that
The dealer replied to me tha the change in chimes is normal in certain situations. I told them it changes the mode like people we know.

They should not brag about their symphonic chime then.

I don't think it is normal. Sounds like a cop out on their part.

I agree.
