    2019 sonic hatchback beeping when open door

    This is weird. I've been driving. I end up where I wanted to go. I turn off my car, open the door from the inside, and the car starts making loud beep beep beep sounds. It doesn't happen when I open the door from the outside and the car is turned off. Any idea what this might be? Thanks.

    Hi folks: So I set the heat to come out at the vent by my feet, but it also comes out through the vent in the middle, above the radio. Is this normal? I definitely have the knob turned to the setting for just the bottom vent. Thanks for you help. Karen

    Understanding Manual in Automatic Transmission

    Hi folks: I don't understand how/when to use Manual mode with my automatic transmission. I've had a number of manual transmission cars, and understand 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th. When I'm driving in automatic, and I move into Manual, do I need to do so when I'm driving at a slower speed, going...

    nighttime rear view mirror ghosting

    So I just got my sonic 2014 LT hatchback, and had my first nighttime drive. Pulled the rear view mirror tab forward so I could dim the glare of the headlights in my rear view mirror. What I was seeing was a greyish tan fairly large horizontal stripe in the mirror. I realized that it was the...
