My honk sounds like a police car.

Mine came with the same horn sound, I just picked it up Sept 16th. I think it sounds great, very fitting. It does make it tough to do a friendly little hunk.

My CT honk sounds like a police car. I did not change the honking sound in the system; it happened today. Yesterday, it still sounded normal.
It’s cool, but I still schedule a service appointment.

I picked mine up on 9/14 & it was built 9/3…AWD white interior & I just noticed mine does it too. I LOVE IT! I’m not changing it, lol

Mine makes the same buzzing sound. Picked up the truck Sept 4. It’s not very loud.

I picked up the same day as you & mine does it too

My concern is that drivers don't seem to be able to hear the horn. I get no reaction from people that pull out in front of me without looking for traffic. The sound really doesn't seem to penetrate through vehicle doors and windows like the standard higher-pitched horn sound. It certainly doesn't have the volume behind it like a real air horn does, so it can't be compared to reactions actual emergency vehicles get.

How do you change it?

Service request. There's some bug or issue with theirs. I had a similar thing on a MY a few years ago...didn't quite sound like that.

I just received this message from my Tesla Service Center:

In this case I kind of hope they do. While it might sound like a neat idea, the volume of this alternate horn is just not enough to get people's attention. I suspect the speaker can't reproduce the low frequencies required to successfully imitate an air horn. The bone-rattling volume of a legitimate air horn just isn't there and other drivers don't even hear it if their windows are up.

Now I'm wondering if there is any good location to mount an air horn on the Cybertruck. Perhaps around the rear hitch area? Would the air suspension tank provide adequate air for an occasional blast?

picked up mine last week and my horn sounds like that. I found it strange it would sound like that.

That horn will get the attention of other motorists. I fully approve!

Will there be an OTA update for everyone else?

I hope I can get it on my April delivery Dual Motor. My horn sounds like a normal car or truck.

I wonder all CTs of PD in Irvine SoCal have this new sound?
