Posessed?

I have a 2001 GA SE. I'll turn the car off, get out and walk away. Every so often, my car will beep its horn and the lights will flash. Only for a quick second. Can some give me an explanation, or is my car posessed? Lol.

it wants you to come back!
jk, it could be your car's auto lock going on or acting up. If you press the inside door lock once, it'll do it like 20 seconds later and automatically lock the car.. flash and do noise. If you press it twice it'll just lock and be silent. Thats how mine works at least.

Welcome to AF squirrel_reed22 !!
I'd agree its probley just the locks doing their thing.
And if youre using a keyfob then it'll also do this.
Though you can change the keyfob features so it doesnt honk.

The delayed locking takes seven seconds after you close the last door and will then honk the horn to let you know it locked, same as if you hit the lock button on the key fob. If it does it randomly, I would ask you if your car has a sun roof as this sometimes allows water to leak and make things hard on the bcm.
