Description of the problem	2007 rav4 ltd v6 - alarm system that kills engine -- malfunctioned. Short in electrical system between alarm system and battery. Dealer supposedly fixed, but i hear a buzz noise like a wire shorting out and the one beep the alarm system is to make when locking car doesn't beep. System malfunctioned 2 x and last time was leaving airport at midnight. Luckily pulled off interstate. Car died. Could have happened while driving on interstate. Car horn continuously beeped when malfunctioning - which could have caused me to be car jacked by someone who thought i was intentionally doing the beeping or it could have killed the engine while driving on interstate. Dealer said problem was battery then said short between battery and alarm system. Supposedly fixed it but it appears that it's still not working properly 2 weeks later so taking back to dealer today.
