ANNOYING: Inexplicable false alarms, 20 times in past 9 months
TITLE: Annoying inexplicable false alarms (20 times in past 9 months)
Something very odd about alarms in this car. Either a design flaw or a failure in the electronics of the Kona I own.
BACKGROUND As expected, when I park at home (having shut off the engine) if I open the drivers door and if any of the below faults ** exist, then an alarm will sound. AND THAT IS EXACTLY AS I SHOULD BE.
*(into Park, turning off the headlights, having the trunk door and the other 3 doors closed)
PROBLEM: But a couple times a month on an average, I've parked the car, done all the right things (in Park, Headlites off, other 3 doors and rear hatch closed), still, I get an alarm when I open the drivers door. Only way to solve it is to: close my door, restart the car and turn it off again. Then I can open the door w/o an alarm sounding.
