Panic button doesn't work?
I have a 2012 sport, I pressed the panic button for the first time and it doesn't work. I have the optional oem alarm installed by the dealer. My question is, does this button even work for anyone?

You have to hold it down. I believe for more than 2 seconds. Try that.

Optional OEM alarm? Do you mean the OEM alarm that all Sport models have?

Just hold the panic button down for some seconds and it should work. The instructions are probably in your manual.

Because you posted a thread before reading the little book that came with the car that tells you how everything works?
