Radio spazzing out

OK, tried searching but couldnt find anything...

yesterday I was driving with the radio on. The radio was set to 100.3 FM. All of a sudden, the radio MANUALLY switched to 100.5 FM. So i was like "ok, thats normal." I put it back to my preset of 100.3 FM. A few moments later it did it again. and then again!

Finally the sh*t went crazy on me and started changing from 100.3 to 100.5 back and forth rapidly. It was like someone was pressing the tune button back and forth really quickly.

I tried another channel. It changed the channel from 92.3 to 92.1



I havent driven it to today, so I dont know if it will happen again.

Has anyone ever come across this, or am I the only one with a radio that feels like changing stations on its own! LOL

You're the only one.

Sounds like a bad tuner to me.

The car needs to be washed in holy water and a prayer for good radio reception should be said by a priest. If that fails, taketh the car to the dealer and get the radio unit changed.

Does it happen all the time or just in certain areas of town? I could see some very small areas having weird reception due to intereference from radio broacast towers. But if it happens everywhere its definately an issue with the unit itself.CM
