Mine has a red blinking light that comes on that says security when I lock the door. I thought that was the alarm....
If I read things right, the cars' windows were broken but the cars weren't entered. A car alarm would need a shock sensor or a glass break detector as part of the system in order to trip the alarm. Some alarms will detect just doors opening, for example.
