If the lock cylinder switches are any good on it, put the key in driver door lock cylinder lock and unlock it, if that doesnt work try the passenger door, then the liftgate until it shuts off. once it sees the a lock cylinder switch input it should disarm, the switches were prone to failure thus having to try every door until it shuts off.

I only have a driver's seat cylinder, didn't help. Alarm still goes off when unlocked and open.

Had same issue with my 2004 Jeep Liberty. I read disconnecting battery for a few minutes and reconnected resets system. It worked for me!
