Question

any help would be appreciated.

Answer
This sounds as if your GEM is going into low power mode.  The GEM in some Fords sends a very small spike about 20 minutes after the last door is shut as it goes into a low power mode.  What does not make too much sense is why it did not do this prior to now.  I would recommend temporarily disconnecting the door trigger from the alarm to see if the problem goes away.  If it does you can diode isolate the trigger
