Mazda CX-5 - What is this siren noise?

This noise sounds like a siren right after I start my car. I've had the car a week. I get in and start the car and have not put it in gear yet and I get this noise. I'm thinking its warning me about something but I have no idea what. It does have a Karr sticker on the window if that helps.

Was unable to load audio/video file - said it wasn't allowed.

    Found out. Apparently I have a SWAT GPS system and the siren noise is because the system was neither activated nor deactivated. :/ Took DAYS to get the dealership to coordinate with the third party but it is finally activated and no more siren noise.

    I bought a 2017 Tacoma from a Mazda dealer... wasn't long before the siren noise started happening. Amazingly I googled and found your thread. Called SWAT, they verified it was on my vehicle and it hadn't been activated nor deactivated. They said call the dealer and they can take care of it on their computer. I'll post the results.
