6.4-liter SRT HEMI V8 engine that is only available on the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT.

Instinct says there is a problem with the Body Control Module; however, testing it would render the vehicle useless until it is reinstalled. I would suggest setting up a surveillance system to see if there could be a stray cat triggering the alarm system(which is controlled by the BCM). No reports of the chirping occurring while at work/school?

Some vehicles have vibration sensors that will trigger alarms when a heavy thunderclap resonates.

WELL I HOPE YOU HAVE THE REMOTE CONTROL FOR THE ALARM DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND RECONNECT IT WHEN THE ALARM SOUNDS PRESS THE ALARM BUTTON ON THE REMOTE CONTROL THIS WILL DEACTIVATE THE ALARM LIKE YOU NORMALLY DO WHEN YOU WANT TO GET IN AND START THE CAR IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE REMOTE THE ALARM WILL KEEP ACTIVATEING NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO AND WILL AUTOMATICALLY GO INTO THEFT MODE AND SHUT THE IGNITION DOWN INTO A NO START CONDITION GOOD LUCK AND PLEASE RATE MY ANSWER STEPHEN

Factory system or added on?

replace the internal battery in the alarm system or complete alarm unit. the random alarm is its way of telling you the battery is on its way out

First, Have your Battery tested. The Alarm systems in Ford made Products are very sensitive to Voltage. There are 3 systems in the car which interrupt power, the Alarm system (horn honking) and the Battery saver and finally the starter interlock system.

The Alarm system will do several things to disable the car from starting. It will reduce the voltage to the starter to prevent the engine from turning over. Some will even kill the ignition system so that if the starter is jumped, the car still won't start.

The Battery saver will disconnect any system to prevent discharge below a minimum threshold. Unfortunately, when the Alternator is working extra hard to charge a really bad battery: it will disconnect the charging circuit because it reads the Draw going to the Alternator to produce the power as a parasitic drain. Even at 70mph I have seen the charging disconnected and the vehicle coast to a stop when the electric runs out.

The last system worth mentioning is the Starter interlock. Under the dash and at the top of the Brake pedal lever is a switch. When you press the brake pedal, the switch allows the starter to crank provided the shifter is not in D or R. Drivers feet routinely hit this switch and either move it or break it. When it breaks it can short and drain the battery.

As you mentioned a Random problem, the Brake switch can shake to create a random problem if it is loose or broken. Your rear brake lights can be affected.

With the horn honking, at least part of your problem is the Alarm system. You can have a bad ignition switch too, which reads the keychip to disable the alarm. Your keychip may be bad and setting off the Alarm.

I had a new Lincoln myself which set off the Alarm randomly. I actually slept inside the car one night so I could turn off the alarm in the Apartment complex parking lot. Did'nt know if it would start again if the battery was disconnected and then reconnected. The Battery was shorted with less than 1000 miles on the car. It was a factory defective battery less than 3 months old.

But your car has many years and miles on it so it was worth mentioning the wear items. I hope my solution is helpful.

The only alarm system I've had is my 12ga with deer slugs.

It shouldn't be too hard to either turn it off, or find the problem power supply. I am thinking the power to the house may have blinked off and on at some point, and the logic of the alarm is freaking out as a result.

Is there a backup battery for the alarm system? If not you could try turning off a circuit breaker at a time until you diagnose which one is powering the alarm system. If you find one that turns the alarm pad off. Leave it off for a few minutes and turn the breaker back on to see if it will reset itself. If the alarm has a battery backup try to remove it and again turn off the circuit breaker. Also search your book for resetting the alarm system.

This is a factory system? don't remember any LED in a factory system.
