My car alarm problem is getting worse. In this afternoon, my car alarm triggers 4 times in 30 minutes. It's quite embarrassing. In the end, I left my car unlocked so that the alarm won't trigger anymore.

maybe ur parking in some wifi zone? Asked the SC before in my last service, what kind of usual problem Dugong has, he said alarm auto trigger due to interruption from some wifi signal, he say can send to SC, they send back to alarm company to retune or change tongue.gif

My car is parked in wifi zone. However, this problem happens in the morning and afternoon (especially day is getting hot). The alarm triggers when surrounding temperature is high. The alarm never trigger at night.

Will SC charges me? I'm still a student and have limited budget.

FYI, my car is 2007 G Spec.

Anyone have problem with alarm ownself trigger?
Mine always triggered i suspect is the tilt sensor on the roof. I wonder can DIY remove or disable it or not cos my warranty already over.

If you see my posts in the previous 2-3 pages, you will know that I face this serious problem. My car alarms triggers a few times every morning when weather is getting hot.

Is the cars black? Last time face the same problem. Apparently black color cars prone to these issue (at least for 1st gen). Last time check cant find the cause, just being told that black attract too much heat hence the alarm triggered. But now no more problem. Not sure why exactly.

dark colour. I think the sensor is sensitive to temperature a.k.a heat

My car left one remote control only (original cobra alarm if not mistaken). I plan to change a new set of alarm system.

Any recommended brand?

I recently face another problem. The airbag indicator is always on since 2 weeks ago. Does anyone face this problem before? Should I bring it to Toyota SC or other workshops?
