We like the locking bird chirp on our R1T. Is there any way to increase the volume of the chirp? By the time she locks, we are at a distance where we can't hear the chirp.

From someone whose aging ears are getting disturbingly bad, I thought mine was broken because I never heard it until parking in an empty lot at 11pm.

But then just to point out the unreasonable consumer that I am, I want the EV safety noise quieter but the bird chirp louder.

It is all about me and I want it now!

Two thumbs up from me to be added in an update so you can choose "Regular" or "Loud" chirp

That would be great, Thanks.

THIS.

While I've gotten over my general displeasure with sound the blinker makes, it's painfully quiet & virtually impossible to hear if you have music playing and/or are traveling at speed.

I'm sure there is some obscure federal regulation that dictates the minimum decibel level that a turn signal has to make (too lazy to look it up / confirm), so in that case it seems like an easy solve to just set the minimum volume at whatever that level is & then allow us to increase it from there.

(Though I have to admit I'd rather them tackle some of the more requested features before getting to these. For example, allowing you to "pin" apps/screens to the "dock" on the main screen, ability to save custom audio EQ settings, displaying and/or reading out text messages which they've said they're working on, etc.).

Please, no.

Or at least make the volume selectable. An audible warning after traveling a certain distance with a signal still on is sufficient. I don't need to be alerted/annoyed with the tock...tock....tock while I'm sitting at a red light waiting to make a left turn with my turn signal on.

Better yet, offer a HUD with turn signal indicators.

User adjustable would be my vote. Or even speed adjusted. I can't hear mine at speed and realize it is still going after corners that are too minor to cancle it automatically.

There is supposed to be a big update coming this summer, very curious to see what changes will be in there.
