Dog in car / alarm
So yesterday we went to the shops, with the dog in the car, very cool day and all windows wound down…. Question is… if we locked the car, would our border collie trip the internal alarm in our 2014 go Ltd…

I believe if you open the door, press the 'lock door' button on arm rest near the window switch as you're getting out, and then close the door behind you it won't activate the alarm.
Just make sure you take the key with you though!

The Red light flashing in the tacho display shows the security bit is armed ... I suppose the best way to check is try it out .... I do know if its all locked up and you walk up and open the back door, if you try to climb over the back seat the alarm will go off... one of the grandkids did that when we were throwing the shopping in the back, he wanted to get to the seat before his sister but we hadn't disarmed anything..

Mate that surprises me that you had unlocked the car...opened the rear cargo door...which I would have thought would disarm the alarm ???....not physically opening the door...but using the fob to unlock it....any input out there ???

I believe I've noticed that opening the boot with a double click on the fob doesn't seem to unlock the other doors, so may not disable the alarm.
I believe opening the boot using the latch does unlock the doors too though.
Possibly to prevent any nastiness of the boot is accidentally opened using the fob? (e.g. sitting on it)
