Default Buzzer?

While taking a turn yesterday around an off-ramp at faster than expected speeds I had a buzzer "whack" at me like a duck basically.

I looked everywhere on CL and can't find our cars having a buzzer.

The stock alarm works fine and coolant / oil are all up to proper levels.

Any ideas? No aftermarket alarm or anything like that.

Anyone? I've got my dash all the way to the dash pad apart and see nothing that would indicate a buzzer for this.

I heard it pretty loudly the other day again, it came from behind me this time and it only happens when the fuel is low.

It sounded like it came from the fuel pump area, no driving issues happen when it buzzes. It almost sounds like an amp is shorting out but there is no amp back there anymore.
