Hi,

When I unlocked my '08 Vogue by putting the key in the driver's door, the door unlocks but the alarm is triggered. I can stop the alarm by then unlocking with the remote.

Is this normal? The Locks and Alarm chapter of the owner's manual doesn't mention this, although it does mention that the alarm is cancelled with the remote.

The chapter states that many features can be activated and deactivated by a dealer so I was wondering if it's down to one of them.

Think its quite normal too
If it was locked with remote you set the alarm and needs remote to deactivate,
you could try to lock with key only and see if that differ - but why:confused:
