Hi Black, welcome to VolvoForums.

The alarm is NOT suppose to alert when the car is shaken, only when broken into.

Back when I had a 740, I did install a shake sensor in the system. Worked fine for several years. It failed and I had to disconnect it.

Some people install an additional system to cover things the oem system does not.
