We've got our 2022 Carnival and we're having issues with the Rear Occupancy Alert going off randomly. Has anyone had this issue? So far, Kia has said this isn't something that can be disabled, which seems pretty odd to me. We've checked, there's just the normal junk in the back that we would expect in a family van with 2 5 year olds.

For my Carnival, I suspect that the junk moving in the back (like a stroller when I move around corners) is what the car is detecting as rear seat passengers moving.

Yeah, in my case this is when the van's been sitting idle. It apparently went off 3 times this morning after I left for work. It is SUPER cold here, and the 2nd sunroof wasn't covered. Nothing came up with a scan, so I suspect that's the culprit in the end.

You can turn it off.
User Settings --> Convenience --> Rear Occupant Alert. Current ... Go into your settings and turn the rear seat child alarm Off ...

thank you for this. We wanted to leave our dogs in the car but didn’t want the sensors going off.

Ours pretty much always pops up. I'm assuming it's because of both child seats installed in the middle row?
