    I just purchased my 2014 tacoma a week ago, and now every time I start it up, it has a laser type sound that goes off like 5 times then stops. It only goes off at starting the truck. I don't know what it's for since there are no warning lights or anything on the dash. It has just started doing it, maybe 3 days ago. Any help is appreciated.

    Its not just standard beeps. The best way I can describe it is a laser sound that goes off like 6 times. I'm pretty sure it's not the seatbelt because I tried buckling it before starting the truck and it still made the sound.

    Kind of lost on what it could be without some way to reproduce the audio and a view of the dash.

    Do you have a rear-view camera system with park assist?
    Aftermarket alarm system?

    That definitely does not sound factory.. do you know if you have some type of aftermarket alarm that was installed by the previous owner?

    I believe it's a factory alarm because the remote is from toyota. Is there another way to check?
