Alarm issues after accident

Recently involved in an RTA rear shunt to vehicle. After which the alarm keeps going off. Reported this to the garage and drive assist as a problem as did not do it before the accident.

The car came back after three weeks and about 12 hrs after sitting on the drive the alarm continues to go off about every 30 mins. Informed the garage and drive assist and they said it was not related to the accident.

Their apparent experts Incident Management Solutions (FYI they do not even physically look or examine the car) stated that the alarm issue was not related.

Can anyone help me with examples of why the alarm would still be going off after the accident?

Ford alarm systems are usually located in the n/s rear wing. Have a look and see if anything is obviously damaged or not correctly replaced after the damage repairs.
