Sitting in the driveway, but, next door neighbor's lawn (right next to driveway) was being mowed by one of those huge/loud zero turns. Wasn't hit, so, would the vibration do it? Strange...

100% can be triggered by vibration. I’m certain that’s looking for thieves rattling the doors or pry or sawing or whatever. I’ve seen them set off by trains and jets.

Also White lightning, LOL, love that!

My alarm is triggered when the dogs are inside my vehicle and my door/tail gate is closed...trying to find a way to disengage when I don't want it to go off! Any ideas...have contacted Ford Canada...they could not help.

Mine defaults to perimeter only since I leave bottles of water in the truck overnight due to leaving early in AM. Apparently the water freezing causes the plastic to sound similar to glass breaking.
Pretty irritating in the middle of the night.
