- 2007 VE Calais 3.6
Hi,
I don't know if it's just mine or whether it's a standard VE thing, but I've noticed a little quirk with my '06 Calais in that during engine startup, the instrument cluster will chime (presumably to remind the driver to fasten seatbelt) but if I'm actually driving and my seatbelt comes off (safely, on a private road) the car won't make a peep about it. I'll just get a little red light pop up.
Seems a bit counter intuitive for the car to make a fuss when I insert the key but not when I'm actually rolling without my belt done up. I swear I've seen another VE go bonkers with warnings when the belt is undone while driving.
