Correct answer to question 158 (Passenger): Treat it as a defect requiring repair before the vehicle is placed into passenger service

Why

The exit alarm helps a driver know immediately if an emergency exit is opened while underway, so a malfunctioning alarm should be treated as a defect needing repair rather than something to ignore or disable.
