Fortunately, I live in the sticks - so I am not worried about theft.

But I just realized today that my car does not seem to have a security alarm.

Is this true?

Anyone?

I am looking at one, and it does look like the XC40 has an alarm:

I just locked my doors with the door handle touch, and the red blinking light on the dash (indicating alarm activation) began blinking. It has an alarm.

It does have an alarm. I found out about it after having the car for over a year when a chain of events (left my wife and dog in the car, locked the door) and somehow she opened the door and the alarm went off. It is not very loud but it has one.

So how do I turn off the alarm for a false positive?

You unlock it with the key fob just like any other car on the planet.

Actually, my other car does not have a keyfob (old school) and I disabled the auto alarm in my wife's car (because of too many false positives)... so the keyfob alarm disarming idea is new to me.
