| Description of the problem | While driving between 30 and 70 mph in second to sixth gear, the car's alarm system randomly activates without apparent reason. The horn sounds and emergency flashers illuminate without cutting off. The alarm is deactivated by stopping the car and shutting off the ignition. Switching it on again results in the alarm not active. The alarm activation occurs randomly and sporadically when driving on hard surfaces including county roads, city streets, and interstate highways, usually driving straight, during dry weather conditions, at various speeds, and in different gears. This random alarm activation happens at irregular intervals perhaps a day or a month apart. It started before may 2017 and continues july 2018. |
