Seeking Advice: 2009 Kia Cadenza's Alarm System Issues Possibly Linked to Theft Alarm System Tilt Sensor

Hey there, had a similar problem with my 2007 Kia Optima. The sensors in the alarm system were acting up. Now, I've got some experience with cars, but this was a first for me. Ended up taking it to the local workshop. Initially, they thought it was a wiring issue but turned out the sensors were the real culprits. Cost me about 250 Euro to get it all sorted. Not sure if it's the exact same glitch you've got, but it sounds pretty similar. Shoot me the engine capacity and fuel type you're rocking, and I might be able to help you out a bit more. Good luck!

Hey, thanks for the quick response! My Cadenza's engine has a capacity of 3.5 liters, and it runs on Gasoline, markers at 114847 Kms now. Was your fix long lasting? I'm just a bit wary as I don't want to keep revisiting this issue. Your insights would be super helpful. Thanks again!

Hey, no problem! Sounds like we've got very similar specs. With my Optima, the fix was pretty long lasting, haven't had any issues with the alarm system since then. It's been about 2 years now. And I totally get you, nobody wants to keep revisiting the same issue over and over again. From my experience, just make sure they replace the faulty sensors instead of trying to repair them. This ensures you will not have the same issue in the near future. Hope this helps! Good luck with it!

Thanks a ton! Your advice comes right on point for me. I'll make sure they replace those sensors if any of them are at fault. Relief to hear your fix has lasted you 2 whole years. Fingers crossed, I hope mine will last too. Thanks again for sharing your experience. Really appreciate it. Cheers!
