Alarm Sensitivity on my 2015 Platinum

I left my large Bernese Mt. dog is the truck while I ran inside the gas station and the alarm (horn and lights) went off, I assume from her movement. I also had the truck outside my house on a windy day and the alarm when off again for no reason other than the sight motion of the wind. Anyone experiencing this and know how to reduce the sensitivity level?

Thanks,

I had the same problem. You can change the settings to "ask for permission" upon leaving the vehicle. This prompts the dash screen to let you choose between "all alarms", and "perimeter only". When I have my dog in the truck I hit perimeter only with the steering wheel arrows and never have any issues.

Interesting my little dog (10lbs) probably set my alarm off the other day as well. Couldn't figure out why the horn was blasting away and thought he may have touched something he shouldn't have. I'll use the perimeter setting next time.

I have a 90lb dog, and have had the same problems. I turned it to perimeter only and he still set the alarm off. So I have it ask me everything time I get out of the truck. Little bit of a pain , but what are you gonna do.
