As we all know, the Niro has an abundance of beeps, chimes, horns, etc.
The first time I accidentally hit the panic button, I went, oh no, the Niro has one of those crappy sounding obnoxious horns. Then one day I actually hit the horn and it is a lovely dual musical tone, similar to American cars of yore. Yeah!
My question is this. When locking the doors with the button on the outside of the door or with the Key Fob, there is a pretty wimpy sounding little Beep which is difficult to hear if you are any distance away from the Niro. That's not great if you are ever wondering whether you actually locked the car before departing and want reassurance without having to walk back close to the vehicle to check.
Does anyone know if the Niro can be reprogrammed to use the louder Panic Alarm Sound or better still, the Niro's Horn for a few millisecond blast when locking the doors? That's what sounds on my other vehicle and it can be heard from at least 50 to 100 feet away even though the tone burst is very short.
