if this is not it, I would spend $7. and run a VIN check on carfax.
if your newly acquired vehicle has been in an accident, with a dealer or seller who did not disclose this, electrical wiring problems, grounding issues, chaffing wires may be a cause, and Colorado has a lemon law.
hope it is just your battery,

Thank you! I will check those things! No, the issues don't seem to repeat themselves. The only one that has it that the car alarm keeps going off, and the only way to get it to stop when it is doing it over and over again is to just leave the car unlocked, which we don't like having to do! We will look into the battery/alternator issue. Thank you so much!
