135 sentry mode incidents

[Double_J]

My sentry mode is crazy sensitive to the point I don't want to check it anymore because it's always a false event. Yesterday my son called me to tell me my car is flashing the headlights every couple of minutes. Sure enough I went out to look at I had 135 events. Each event was approximately 2 minutes apart.

Is this normal, or should I be doing something different?

when I get something similar my Sentry Cam footage is glitchy and just skips back and forth. It won’t even show the full footage of one clip. never mind dozens. Wish I knew how to fix that.

Where is the car parked when your son notices that the headlights flash every couple of minutes? Busy narrow street?

Depending where you live, I would choose to deactivate sentry mode at home. I have security cameras around the house and in my garage that would do a better job. My daughter was setting it off all the time when I first brought my Y home.

It's going off at my home but it just started the past couple of days. This morning had 213. I keep it on because the neighbors kids are little sh$ts.

My son noticed it because his bedroom faces the driveway.

I’ve had the same problem. I’m parked facing the street (busy) so I average about 200+ events every morning. I found if I park the car with the rear facing the street I get minimal hits since most of the sensor cameras are forward facing in front of the rear view mirror. Still a lot of non-panic events.
