So, I've had the amazing car for about a month maybe. 2007 RL w/ tech package. I drive it just to drive it. It's had ALL the scheduled maintenance done, replaced engine mounts, drive belts, timing belt water pump and looks BRAND NEW inside and out COMPLETELY. OK, so right after I bought it the alternator starts whining, luckily the non-acura dealership fixed it for free. It's been a 2-3 weeks and we've had record rain here in Dallas for the last week and still another week of storms at least coming.
Good part: I hear someone laying on the horn this morning at 8 for a good 30 seconds plus. I go outside ready to give someone some and I don't see anyone. Can't tell who's car it is. It happens again. I run out and it stops. Maybe its a car a ways down the lot. It happens again and I go out and realize it just might be MY CAR. GASP. I lock, unlock w/ FOB- all fine. I decided (after looking a bit on here) to take it for a spin, run the heater and maybe dry out whatever is having an issue. Park it. Getting out of the car when I drove it, the door sensor didn't lock the car- had to use the FOB. 20 mins- HORN. I frantically check for my FOB and now I see the lights flashing and hit EVERY button on the FOB and NOTHING stops it. It just stops on its own after 30 seconds. WTF IS GOING ON? Door sensor problem? Hood latch? Just wait till it dries out A WEEK FROM NOW? Any way to disable the Alarm for this until I can get it looked at? I don't care if someone breaks in it, I don't keep anything in there. I've had stuff stolen before from a TL in middle of the day in front of a restaurant with people everywhere- THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT ALARMS. Its going to happen. As long as it disengages the ignition so the car doesn't get stolen, I'm cool with disabling the thing. This is my further of fifth Acura and I've NEVER had so many problems.
Amazing car otherwise.
Any help would be MOST appreciated!! I and my neighbors need to sleep!
