When driving the radio will occasionally suddenly come on very low and then the volume will build. When the car stops and the ignition turned off the radio will not restart when-when the engine is restarted. There are times the radio will not come on for weeks.

I have a 2013 F150 King Ranch pretty well loaded up. In the last several thousand miles (I have approximately 45,000 miles on it), the AM radio, which I listen to a lot, has the volume go up and down on its own. Very annoying. i took it to the dealer to have it analyzed and fixed and after 3 days, came back and said Ford said to start w replacing antennas (all) @ a tune of approximately $450, WITH NO GUARANTEES! Unbelievable! Then it that didn't work, replace the radio.
Well in reading some forums, it appears this has been going on a long time and it appears that Ford doesn't seem to care. This is the first Ford I've owned and I as a business owner, have owned many, many Chev PU's over the years with no problems. My 2010 Suburban doesn't have this problem w twice the miles.
Ford Excursion :: Stock Radio Amplifier Lost Volume?
The stock radio in my 2003 X seems to have lost a lot of volume. I assume there is a stock amplifier but where it would be. Is it internal to the radio? I did check all fuses that were related to the radio.

I picked up a nicely used 98 XL in Alabama yesterday, with 106k original miles. The dealer threw in FREE oil changes for life with my purchase, but I don't see me driving 2.5 hours to Alabama for that.
It's got crank up windows, manual locks, standard tranny, 4.2 V6, and the regular seats. Yep, pretty basic. It came with a matching fiberglass shell also. The only things wrong are the radio volume doesn't adjust, and the rear window frame appears cracked. These are minor in my opinion.
What drew me to this truck was the beautiful condition it's in and my love of this body style. What would be added to improve creature comforts, performance, etc.
Ford Wiring/Electrical :: 2001 F150 - Stock Radio Volume Not Increasing Beyond A Certain Point
I took a ten hour drive to see about a parts car for a car I'd like to restore and on my way there and back I noticed my stock radio (with CD player) that came with the truck would not increase in volume beyond a certain point. At its peak it was about one-third of what it should be despite the meter being all the way to the far right.
As I drove along for hours, I noticed a couple of times that the volume would come and go.It would be itself momentarily then go back to almost nothing. Also,when I first start the truck,there is a short popping sound hailing from the speakers. For what it's worth,the CD player stopped reading CDs a ways back.. Does any radio manufacturer out there make a radio/CD player for this model that just slips right in without any cutting or looking aftermarket?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: F250 Radio Randomly Changing Stations And Volume
My 2004 F250 has been having issues with the radio. Its been randomly changing stations and volume. I think its due to moisture in the dash. Its stops when I run the heater thru the dash vents.
View 1 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Radio Volume Fade Up And Down
My radio in the B6 seems to be acting strange...... I'll have the volume at a set level and it will fade up and down, like the volume is being ever so slightly raised and lowered. I thought at first it was some sort of speed-volume control but it fades up and down for no apparent reason. I have the in dash 6-cd changer with the XM built in.

Whenever I turn my car off with the radio on, then turn the car back on, the radio is never at the same volume. It is normally quite louder than I would like when just sitting down and getting situated. This is petty, and my only quip with the car. Just curious if they are all like this. I didnt find anything in the manual, and I know I can contact my dealer, but I thought I would ask here first, we are the ones that drive these cars everyday.

2011 Limited with Navigation .... Supposedly a 360 or 380 watt stereo.
When streaming from my phone, it's great, using Sirus/XM, it's terrible. I called Sirus/XM, no luck there. I've asked the dealer about it several times over the last 3 years, no luck.
Has any found if there are Line Level input settings hidden that can be adjusted? Since it's loud enough when Streaming, that seems to be the issue. I really don't want to buy an amp, etc. I'd be happy with the volume level I get when streaming if it was that loud with Sirus/XM...
Passat (B7) :: Radio Volume Would Not Work During Driving
We had to replace our radio and the new one the volume would not work just driving down the road. Dealer has been great in working with us, got us a second new radio and it is having the same issue. Also the second new radio will not change FM/AM stations, doesn't matter which station you switch too it stays on the first station when you originally turn on the car.
View 1 RepliesMitsubishi - Montero :: Radio Changes Volume By Itself While Moving
We have a 2007 Mitsubishi Pajero (not sure the current equivalent in US, it used to be the Montero but I think they have since discontinued it). It's a great car. One rather annoying issue we are having with it at the moment...
The radio changes volume by itself. It goes up, it goes down, all on it's own without any input from us. Here are some observations:
- Only happens when the car is in motion, at a stand-still it is fine.
- Only happens when listening to radio, not CD player or DVD player.
The car does not have a "knob" for the volume, it is just buttons (rules out potentiometer thingy)
There are steering wheel controls, but the fact that the volume changes only happen when listening to the radio, and not CD, make me believe it's not those. Same with speed-sensitive volume controls. We have turned those off in the settings and it still does the same. Even with them on or off, the CD volume works as expected.
Santa Fe (DM - 2013+) :: Radio Stuck At Low Volume
I could barely hear the radio and the volume was not working. A couple of days later, the display screen (GPS, Radio, ...) would not come off after I turned car engine off. The battery discharged as a result. When attempting to start the car, lots of clicks were coming off the fuse box under the hood.
My solution: I removed the negative on battery and put it back; now everything is back to normal.
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 03 / 470 - Radio Cuts Out At High Volume?
03 GX470 w/ ML/Nav, weird radio problem - the radio cuts out at high volume, and only at high volume. It cuts out for 1 sec, then comes back, then cuts out, then comes back. Screen is on all the time while this happens, and occurs with all inputs - AM, FM, dvd. These are what I've done to diagnose so far:
1) disconnected battery for 10 minutes, no joy
2) replaced 2 fuses pertaining to radio, no joy
3) took out cd in dvd player, no joy
Here's what's weird: When I move the balance to have all/most of the sound coming from the rears, it doesn't cut out! See attached pic. I am able to get it to the 3rd line below the lowest; if I go above this line, it starts cutting out.
I did replace both front speakers a month ago, and was working fine all this time.
Bad amp? Bad front speakers?
Passat (B6) :: Radio Default Volume Too Loud - Possible To Reset?
My wives 2006 Passat, with stock radio, has an issue where the default stero level is too high. I've gone into the options and tried to turn down the starting volume, but it won't go down, only up. Is their someway to reset the stero back to default original settings or something? It's really startling at night when you hit the key and something is that loud!
View 10 RepliesCamry :: 2009 LE - Factory Radio Adjusts Volume On Its Own
I have an 09 Camry LE. When driving, the volume is consistent until I begin braking. It then lowers the volume itself. When I accelerate, it ramps back up.
Also on the highway, the bass is excessive. I usually turn it down to -1 or -2 depending on the track. The car is completely stock. I've had the car for a few weeks now.
This is the only factor that may lead to me replacing the stock radio. I don't want too, but if this problem can be solved by that, than I will.

View 17 RepliesSonata NF (2006-10) :: 2009 - Radio Volume Mutes Itself
I just purchased a 2009 Sonata (82,000) miles for my daughter to drive. Didn't notice this issue during the test drive, but discovered it shortly after leaving the dealership.
The radio will randomly adjust the volume to 0. If I attempt to raise the volume it immediate mutes it again, and no other radio controls will work. Turning off the radio and turning it back on seems to fix it for about 5 minutes and then it happens again.
Also, any use of the steering wheel audio controls will trigger this behavior, and the steering wheel control buttons themselves just seem to do random things.
I'm annoyed at myself for not noticing this during the test drive, and phoned the dealer who just sold me the car but naturally he just said, gee, that stinks...or in so many words.
Does this seem like the head unit? The steering wheel controls? Something I can fix? I did try pulling the fuse but that seemed not to work. Also turned off the AVC. A bit of a bummer after only owning the thing for an hour...
Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Radio Volume Changing On Its Own - What To Do
yesterday, I was driving along a stretch of road I have driven hundreds of times. The difference this time was my radio decided to turn the volume very low then back to normal. When I heard the sound start to lower I looked at the radio & I could see the numbers for the volume level decline then go back up.
View 7 RepliesLexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 Radio Volume Cannot Be Raised Or Lowered
It's a weird issue. Randomly the radio's volume can not be raised or lowered. Usually this is at first time you start the truck no matter cold or hot. When this happened last time i clicked on the button that says sound. It brings you to the screen to change fade and balance and it was all darked out that you couldn't tap on it. After two minutes or even less it started to work. I'm thinking the original amp is the issue but others tell me its the radio.
