Hint:
Your car alarm goes off randomly, it went off couple of times last night... and off again at 9am and then noon. Nothing is around the car. what could cause this??
Answer:
You undoubtedly have the
"Impact Sensor" which is an add on / optional accessory. Just have the dealership's service department adjust the sensitivity.
Have them show you where the Impact Sensor resides and show you the little adjustment knob, so you can do it yourself in the future if necessary. The Impact Sensor with the little adjustment knob is probably under the glove compartment but I am not sure of this. Regardless, the dealer will adjust and there will be no charge to do so. Tell them it has been an issue since you bought the car. Very simple for you or anyone to adjust BUT you have to know where the Impact Sensor/adjustment knob is located on your Juke. When you find out do be sure to come back here and tell others..
