Default Chime question

i was driving my car earlier going around 60-65 then accelerating pertty hard to about 85-90 i was doing this sevral times, then i heard a chime like if the car keys were left in the ignition after you open the door, it would ding about three or four times no lights came on and the temp was normal, i checked oil and water when i got home and everything was fine any ideas?

I read where the My Color thing sets off a chime when you go over 75mph.

yeah i was already in a crash b4 they told me the same thing, so a seat belt is a given when i get in any car, i was thinking that possibly one of the lights in the dash went out or something is that possible? of it were to happen would it throw out a code if i were to scan it?

or a false signal from the e-brake sensor would cause it to chime. I haven't heard of that problem, but it's possible. (in case you think I'm nuts, pull on your e-brake ever-so-slightly while driving and the chime will sound)

i dont think the trunk is making the chime go off alothough i do do have a subwoofer so is it possible that the vibrations could make something go off back there, yeah i tried the pullin the e-brake just a bit before it came close to engaging the brakes and it did make the sound, maybe with the road vibrations and everything made the switch go off?
