Hey Loribeth

Here is a guide to help you reset your alarm system on your car. I would try disconnect the battery negative cable and then hold it to the positive terminal of the battery which will discharge the capacitors and hard reboot the system.

Disconnect the battery then turn the ignition key on and reconnect the battery worked for my car.

Here is a guide that will help as well.

You could also try unlocking the rear door/gate to disarm the alarm. Sometimes they have that lock disarm

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers
