5 beeps after I start moving...

2004 F150 XLT S-Cab 4.6
I just got my truck back from the body shop. It was in a minor wreck, the drivers fender, door, and front bumper were replaced. I got it back on Friday but it did not start doing this until today. Once I take off moving forward, I get a series of 5 beeps (like the one you get when the door is opened). No lights are on in the dash panel. Sometimes it is just 1 series of beeps, sometimes it will do it multiple times but always seems to stop after 1 or 2 minutes.

Any idea what this could be? I'll get it back to the dealer body shop next week, but was wondering if anyone had any input on this for today.

Thanks in advance.

Your airbag light is probably burned out plus you have a fault in the airbag system. The audio alarm is a backup to the light in your cluster.

Verify operation or lack thereof of the airbag light in your cluster when you first turn the key to RUN from off. The light is supposed to come on for two seconds while the system self-tests.

The dealer should know how to handle this. They'll just add it to the insurance adjusment for the crash repair since it's probably a direct result of the accident's damages.
