mustang mach-e "alarm system turn off sensors?"

[CW23]

I have a 3 week old Premium Mach E and my alarm is triggered when nothing is in or around the car for three days in a row. I have to keep it unlocked in order for it not to be a nuisance
I also was a victim of the loud thump from the speakers or from using the CarPlay feature that Dealer is telling me, they can’t repeat that problem that I had I am afraid to use the audio on the vehicle for fear of my ear drums busting
It also gave me about 8 alerts in a row saying that the Blindspot cross detection with traffic system needed attention and that there was something wrong with my electrical system
I am very disappointed!!

It’s very likely your 12V battery is low. Especially if the car had been sitting the dealer’s lot for a period of time before you bought it.

Since you’re new to the car, accessing the battery to put a charger on it is a PIA. Either ask your dealer to check the 12V battery state of charge and charge it, or go on a leisurely 2 hour drive to charge it.

Don’t give up on the car yet - it’s likely a minor issue.

I really hope it’s a minor issue but right now I feel very let down by the lack of resources to help me remedy my problems. Thank you for your response and I’ve been driving daily to work. I have a 45 minute drive each way. I see a lot of post here about the 12 V battery so I will be inquiring at the dealership about that. I am so thankful that I found this group. It has been very helpful.

There’s a way to see the 12V battery SoC on you Ford.com vehicle dashboard:
The dashboard initially looks like this:

Click the “Check Status” link on the Reservations and Orders tile. You get this:

Click the link with the left arrow “My Account”. You now get this which shows the “Charge Level”. It’s the 12V SoC - not the HVB SoC:

I hate this system . I bought a 2021 Mach-e and no matter what I do, I cannot stop the stupid alarm system with the remote. I had to disconnect the battery

If you press unlock on the fob the alarm stops. Or enter the door code. Or start the vehicle.

I don't see a reservations option on ford.com dashboard. Can't seem to find a way to check my battery SOC? I have the options to "text an ev specialist," "discover your ford," "software updates," "Fordpass rewards," "warranty," "vehicle health report," and "connected services." I tried the health report, but can't seem to find a way to see anything. Just says no issues found and doesn't give any real information.

Go to your Account menu item when you're logged in.

And that's for the 12V battery, not the "go-go" batteries, right?
