I have had my car about two weeks now, and prior to the last few days I would get a tone and a
yellow key graphic when I turned the car off.
As a test I left the lights on turned the car off and again , no warning, or tone , or light graphic. The car runs fine , and before I call my SA anyone else have this slight problem and is it a warning of things to come?

I have the same tone / chime with a yellow key graphics, when I remove the key then open the door immediately. I thought the yellow key graphics is telling me the key is still in the ignition. If I remove the key and wait a few seconds longer before opening the door, I don't hear the chime w/ yellow key warning.

Can you perform this test for me? Shut off engine, remove the key then open the driver's door immediately. This action is very routine for me. I do hear the chime and get the yellow key graphics.

If I turn the car off and quickly open the door before I remove the seat belt I get the chime and the key graphic.
If I remove the seat belt then turn the car off and open the door no chime , no graphic.
Thanks, I believe it's OK , maybe the seat belt effects chime, but I'm not going to worry about it.
I ordered red reflectors today should be in wednesday, $15.75 USD ea. BTW, when I pick them up I may ask my SA about it if he's free.
