My alarm went off repeatedly on a windy night, would not correct with unlock/lock sequence on key. Eventually managed to find how to disable the cabin movement sensor via an option hidden in Settings menu on the steering wheel menu (left scroll bar) . That seemed to fix it I set it to “Alwsys Ask” if you want cabin alarm sensors activated or not each time you switch off the car. I’ve put it in for a warranty repair because this is not right. I also heard that initiating the cabin air conditioning to pre-cool the car can also set off the alarm I met someone in Nissan dealer who had that happen think it is a known fault seems that airflow might set off the cabin sensors & set the alarm off. Anyone had similar experience also does anyone know if there is a way to know if the alarm has gone off while the car is left I couldn’t see anything and when it happened to me there was nothing to let me know when I entered the car and turned it on & also nothing on the Nissan Connect App

Got my car back yesterday where they did a re-call fix for this. Seems to be ok now.

There is a software fix for the pre conditioning alarm problem.
Have the same issue and this is after the recall fix for remote air con start up issue!
Really annoying! Software on this car has far to many annoying elements and faults.
We won't be leasing a Nissan again unless Nissan issues a major software redesign update.
As an aside, we knew the displays were not particularly high quality as the outset, but this coupled with the quirkiness and poor graphics, I now realise how much these things actually matter!!

Finally got the dealer slot to look at this they are going to replace the ultrasonic Sensor - let’s see if that solves it. The Nissan engineer also said they’ve had with another customer the alarm going off due to trapped moth! ! It used to hide away during the day and then flit around at night setting the alarm off!!
That moth thing remembers me something.
On an old Nissan Terrano 2 that I had with interior ultrasonic sensors, each time in summer that I kept the windows open when camping in summer for the car to not get hot the alarm always went off when a fly went around inside the cabin, super sensitive system, couldn'tbelieveat first it was that precise. Later I learnt while reading the manual that there was a setting for disabling ultrasonic sensors temporarily when leaving the car with an specific button on the lower part of the dash. Problem solved when camping since then.

Had the update done in December, didn't work. Another recall last month to re-fix. Dropped the windows the other hot day, breeze set alarm off. Waiting for next re-call.
