Hey all,

Tried searching this and even did the above stickied update to fix bugs but nothing's working.

I bought a 2015 Big Horn 4x4 (50k miles but clean as a whistle) a couple of days ago and while test driving/checking everything out the Sirius/XM was playing no prob. I checked other things on the touch screen to make sure they were working but never bothered to try the AM/FM out. When those are pressed all you hear is a funny squelch noise. But EVERYTHING else works on it. Very odd.

Called the dealership and they should have a new replacement by Monday. No charge of course but one of their mechanics said it had "locked up" and was common on this year and model?? Anyone ever heard of this being "common?"

Thanks!

I wouldn't say it's common , but the 8.4" radios do sometimes lock up .
If your radio has Navigation make sure the replacement has Nav , dealerships are notorious for messing this up.
