I'm not sure what you are asking. I think you are saying that the chimes stay on all the time after you park the car?

My guess is that the ignition switch needs replacing or 1 or more of the door ajar sensors is stuck. Has the recall been done?
Yes recall was done in 2016 called dealership there saying they dont think it the ignition switch

Glad to see some ideas , was working on my 07 today pulled the ignition switch and cleaned it but still no change. Key out door open ding ding ding , push the door button or close door and it goes off . Anyone know if the TDS or the ignition switch control's the ding ? Also don't close the rear hatch with the battery disconnected 🤣

There are 3 wires on the lock cylinder that match the colors that go to the alarm signal so, I am assuming it is the cylinder that has a switch in it. I know it is not the TDS.

Does yours turn off after you close the driver door? Does it start back up when you open it again?

Did you go through the personalization menu of the DIC to make sure delayed lock is turned off?

A possible reason this might happen after the recall was done is that some people got panicky after it was announced but before the new parts were available and the dealers were informed about the procedure; so the dealers used the old defective in stock parts to satisfy the panicking customer.

When did this issue begin for you? Before the recall work? Immediately after? A year ago?
