New G63 owner, few surprises over the weekend.

Picked up my new 13' G63 this weekend(traded my GL) car is awesome I love the way it drives and roars lol. Anyway this weekend during the day the alarm came on couple of times during the day(dealer said to come down and they can tune down the sensivity??) did anybody experience that? Second glitch was when I pulled out of my parking spot one day the hood light came on that the hood was opened? Stopped car went outside looked pulled and its closed. I than pulled the hood open and closed it again than I shut the engine off and started it right away and it went away. I'm thinking those two glitches might be connected to each other. Anybody here experienced anything like that? Thanks in advance.

My guess is that a faulty hood sensor is triggering the alarm...should be a straight forward fix...but this is just a guess.

Hoping that will be the reason... Funny thing about it is it goes on during the day when it's hot outside and than it does not go off from 5pm till next day around 10am??? Frustrated...
