How good is the Alarm/Security/Bluelink features on the 2025 Santa Fe Hybrid Caligraphy SUVs

Looking for user experiences with the 2025 Santa Fe Hybrid (Caligraphy..prob doesn't matter on trim) with the alarm/security features.

  • Did someone bump your parked car and did the siren go off and did you get Bluelink notification?
  • Did anyone try to jack the car up and any siren or bluelink notification
  • Did you unfortunately get the car stolen (without leaving the fob in the car it being stolen), meaning that the cars immobilizer got hacked
  • Did it get towed away and you didn’t get any notification?

I’m asking these things because the manuals of the car say almost nothing of the 

“Security-Alarm” aspect of things and I don’t want to put an aftermarket alarm into the unit for a ridiculous price if the immobilzer works fine. I keep my fobs in a faraday case when I get home from work so I've limited the cloning aspect. I’m not getting  “the club” or a lock on the wheels.

Right now I am leaning towards a higher end dash cam with Parking monitoring features that should help quite a bit but i don’t want to spend more money if the car and bluelink give me enough protection and realish time notifications.

Many thanks for taking the time to read this.
