I wish there were logs related to cause of alarms but I haven't seen them. There could be something in there on the '19+ Enform systems though that isn't readily published. Bring up to dealer and at least rule that out.
'16+ Enform in general has far more integration with vehicle than previous years. Not saying related but just brainstorming.
You can't rule out some kind of 3rd party interference as well. Do you have any nearby military bases?

No military bases close by that I know of. It started occurring August 18 and seems to be picking up in daily frequency at same time frames.
Just pulled the dealer window sticker and it does have the GBS sensor equipped.
You might try unplugging the microphone as a test. That cover drops easily and the microphone disconnects as well.
I'll give it a shot.
Until then, I'm going to disconnect the battery at night until my appointment on Tuesday with the dealership. I need my sleep. Any issues with doing this I should be concerned about?
Ironically had mine go off this morning for no apparent reason.
Just turned my alarm off right now lol. I wanted to see if the pattern continued...
One thing I've noticed lately is after starting and reversing out of my driveway, when I shift to drive and accelerate, there's a noise that comes from somewhere below the steering wheel. It sounds like the shutter of a camera when taking a picture. Maybe some sort of solenoid? Started hearing it around the same time that the alarm issue began.
I notice starting with the '20 model year they added some additional logging that your dealer could query with Techstream to see what component of the system is triggering the alarm.

Ahhh try and match it up with the logged times. Nice. I'll mention this when I'm there.
Might be a defective door jam or hood switch as well. The hood microswitch is commonly reported with alarm errors when I look around. Marginal continuity influenced by humidity or temps raises to a level that car thinks it is an electrical open and then sets the alarm off.
Okay. Could it be possible that this dude is taking a ride with me to work, waiting 9 hours, and coming home with me? Or did this dude possibly chew a wire?
My alarm has been going off a few times the last couple of weeks too. No pattern. However it seems to be shorter duration than the last time it went off.
That data logging is actually available even in old Techsteam installs and I see on my rig.
My alarm said it was the Glass Break Sensor. I guess I need to turn down the sensitivity. I unplugged microphone for now since I am in a spot it might happen again.
Other interesting logs are Windows and General Locking.
My VM time is off several hours... timestamps are based on PC clock.
Also checked your remote batteries too. I remembered the last time I had this happened I replaced the batteries and that went away for a long while. Now it’s back but not as frequent but I’m going to check the batteries too.
