I have had some fairly consistent problems with my car. I got it used
in 2004. I am a grad student in the boston area and as such donot drive
the car as often now. I had to have it jumped 2-3 times before and
finally had the battery replaced. (given, 1 or 2 times were during
winter so it was very likely I had not started it frequently enough) I
did have the battery replaced very recently with a six year battery
since it was about time.

about a month and a half ago, the alarm was erratic and the car would
not start as a result. The Triple AAA guy got it started and I brought
it to a Hyundai car repair and they had to reprogram the alarm but said
the battery was fine. I am basically having the same problem again.Does
anyone have any thoughts on this?

Back to the Hyundai dealer for further investigation?
 
The number one cause of setting off the alarm for no reason is a problem
with the hood switch or its adjustment. To check this, you could just
unplug it and see if the problem goes away.
