Beeping noise after key is removed

I tried searching to see if others have had this problem, but no luck. Sometimes when I put in park and remove the key, I get a warning beeping sound. It won't stop until I put the key back in and turn to the on position and then remove again. It doesn't always occur and I've seen no pattern or specific reason. Anyone else have this happen? Any clue as to why it's happening?

The computer hasn't completely shut down. Pause a moment after you shut the key off before removing it. If you put the key in and very rapidly switch to the start mode you will notice it won't start, same thing the computer has to "boot up".
