Got a problem that has cropped in the last few months with the alarm?  system. When making a
sharp right turn-270 degrees, 25-30mph, alarms/buzzer inside the car go off and stay on
several minutes. Dealer unable to fix or reproduce  problem...no scan codes,nothing..seems
to come and go at will on sharp right turns. Any ideas on this one?  Help

Keep taking it to the dealer until they reproduce the problem. It
should be covered under the warranty. So why take matters into your
hands, when a dealer can do it professionally...for free (hopfully)

>From the way you describe it, it sounds like you can reproduce the
alarms/buzzer while turning sharp right.  If this is the case then take
the dealer tech with you on a driveability test, only you do the
driving while he reads the computer codes on his scanner.  Wait, before
you go thru all that, a sharp right turn-270 degrees at 25-30mph?  Are
you a stunt driver?  Wouldn't it be easier just to turn left 90
degrees?  If it is truely a sharp right 270 degree turn at 25-30mph,
try taking your alarm decoder off your key chain as it is probably
smacking in to the steering column and activating the panic button.

Response: appreciate the advice. I will keep bugging the dealer. My problem is the dealership is
30 minutes away, usually backed up and an all day affair. The 270 degree turn....when we go
under the overpass and turn back to the right to crossover the bridge over the 4 lane road. 25
to 30 mph is probbly closer to 20 mph

Thanks TJ
