Default factory alarm randomly goes off..HELP

Hello guys.

All of a sudden (read:past few hours), my factory alarm will just randomly go off.
Does anybody know why it is doing so, and more importantly... how do I fix said problem.

Thanks.
Rich

The most common cause of that problem is the shock sensor - particularly if it has been wet in your area. It is located under the right hatch trim in front of the spare tire. You can try adjusting the sensitivity (sometimes works) but you may have to disconnect it and buy a replacement if you really want it.
