A little more info would help. What alarm is it? Who installed it? When? Did the problem just start? Etc...

hey i have a similar problem...i just bought a 99 max se from a private seller, everything was fine till i drove it home when i found out the alarm doesnt work right...both remotes worked intermittently, after semi-successfully reprogramming one remote the only thing that doesnt work is the alarm and panic buttons....perhaps disconnecting both battery terminals to reset the system??

As far as the panic feature goes..you have to hold it for a few seconds for it to activate. Im not sure if you tried this, but only thing I can think of. Does your horn still work?

With the trunk release, do you have a lever on the driver side floor? Or a button on the driver door?
