Some Dodge Charger owners report experiencing nuisance alarm issues, where the alarm randomly sounds off without any apparent cause. These problems may stem from sensitivity issues with the deluxe alarm system's sensors, leading to frequent activations despite no clear triggers. Additionally, some owners find that a malfunctioning key fob can send panic signals to the alarm system, causing it to activate unexpectedly. A worn or damaged key fob is also noted as a potential source of the problem. To address these issues, some owners suggest having the dealership reflash the Body Control Module (BCM) to rectify any glitches in the factory alarm system. Other troubleshooting steps include performing a battery reset and checking for faulty components, such as aftermarket tail lights with problematic sockets. If the dealership has not provided a satisfactory solution, exploring these potential causes may help in effectively resolving the nuisance alarm problem.
