    I have a Toyota Prius c 2012 that randomly started to honk really loud when I unlock the car. I don’t know what the issue is and can’t find a solution to the problem. I don’t really know much about cars, but any information would be greatly appreciated.

    You can turn that off, see the owner's manual.

    I can’t seem to find it in the manual. I did try some of the stuff that I thought was related to the problem but none of it seems to work.

    Sounds like a car alarm. Is there an after market car alarm installed in your car?

    I don’t think so. Usually this issue tends to disappear after a couple of weeks maybe months, but it comes back randomly and I don’t know how to fix it.
