Question Alarm/Trunk Malfunction

SO I've had my srt-6 for over a year now, and it is out of warranty....that's when it all began. First the alarm just went off for no reason, took it to the dealership and they said it was because my key was stuck...so we took out the battery out. The problem persist so I took the fuse out. Took it to the dealership again and they said it was something to do with a sensor and they want to charge me an arm and leg to "take a look" at it. So I put the fuse back in and crossed my fingers. The alarm never went off again...come to find out, the alarm doesn't work now, I now have to manually lock my doors (which is embarassing) and to top it all off...my trunk will not open!!! IF anyone has any clue as to why it is acting up, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it. If not, I guess I'll just suck it up and let the dealership work on it and be carless for 4 days

There was a recent thread about the vacuum lines to the hatch mechanism getting pinched and causing some weird problems. Including alarm errors. Do a search for that and do some reading.

Hope this helps?

I guess I should have done research before I posted. Thanks so much! But I'm not sure if I can fix the problem...
