Had the Honda alarm in the vehicle when I purchased the vehicle The alarm keeps going off .The service department claims that it cannot be adjusted to
be less sensitive??? This cannot be correct

Which sensor does it indicate is triggering it? The Honda alarm doesn't have an impact or shock sensor, just the glass breakage sensor which shouldn't false alarm like a shock sensor would. I don't see any adjustment on the alarm for the sensor.

It may be an aftermarket alarm as a lot of dealers contract with outside companies to install alarms for them.

I had assumed it was a honda alarm

I assume this thing has a hood pin trigger? If so, I'd check to see if that pin is installed properly and is not loose.

I didn't catch that it was an RTL, sorry, those come from the factory with an alarm. A lot of dealers add aftermarket alarms to those still (my Sisters Odyssey has an add-on that her dealer added on top of the factory one).

I'm not familiar with the features of the stock ridgeline alarm, however so far I haven't encountered a factory alarm from Honda that had any triggers other than doors getting opened. They haven't even put the glass break sensor in their ones on Accords and Odysseys.
