2021 - Loud/clunking noise when opening a door

[Micahsd]

I was wondering the same thing. It makes some funny noises when I get near the vehicle before starting it and it all makes several funny sounds a minute or two after shutting it off.

That noise when approaching is the fuel pump priming itself…same noise you’d here on a vehicle with an ignition key when turning it to the run position before starting it.

I’m not sure why these do that. Seems like a waste of battery power to me if I’m just going out to grab something from it. I believe there’s also a sensor in the key fob which triggers it when you get close before hitting the unlock button.

THAT is completely normal... My 2021 makes all of those same noises as I come close to it and when I turn it off. Some of it is covered in the manual.
