Car alarm goes off

It's a 2018.

It will not default. It resets to all sensors every time the vehicle is shut off. 99whitec5coupe.....funny thing is it didn't come with a manual. I bought it used. Sorry for taking up your precious time....I was under the impression people could come on here to gain knowledge and understanding from others. Keyboard warrior, huh?

Did you try Settings -> Vehicle -> Alarm as suggested above? What options do you see?

You could also try electrical tape over two two sensors in the overhead console.

The owner’s manual can be found here (for future reference). Looking through it, it appears that the option to default the alarm setting came in later models

My ‘18 let’s you pick a default or prompt at exit.

That’s the same option I get on my 2020. Nice to see!

Aggiegrad05......does it stay that way? Or does it reset to all sensors every time you turn the vehicle off and then on?

On my 2019 the selection does not stick. When you restart the car it defaults all perimeter sensors.

Mine appears to stay that way. The prompt on exit always has the permitter “checked”

I’m guessing this is a safety feature to help prevent child deaths from being left in a hot car

Could be. My kids set it off a few times until I started using the door keypad. Usually leave it running and them locked up.
