my perfectly good Honda Civic 1999 now makes beeping noises ( always 10!) from the front passenger’s glove compartment at random times,soon after I’ve got going -usually several minutes, or not st all ! I am making a log of times/weather/seat belt,windows etc but there is no pattern as yet( 4 weeks). The Honda mechanic didn’t experience it when he made a test drive, and doesn’t understand what could cause it in this model. It’s quite irritating but I hope it isn’t an indication of trouble to come! Any ideas ? Thanks ---

My car did the same and it turned out to be my cell phone low battery alert. I’m not making this up.
