    The display has turned off, and it will sometimes will turn on to just one station, other than that no workey. Sometimes if the car is restarted it resets itself and works fine for about 5 min. anyone else go through this? I did some searching and found that people have had problems with the amp and radio and in the past, might have to take it in. thanks in advance.

    Those things have had gremlins in them for years. Take it in or just replace with a aftermarket HU. I replaced mine and been a lot happier. Never had an issue with my factory hu though.

    Its a rare gemlin but my '11 radio will occasionally shut itself off when I change stations. Been meaning to replace it with an aftermarket head unit since the day it was new. Lol!

    After reading all the threads of snapped leafs and rusted frames and all these other problems, I am starting to regret my purchase.

    Mine will just shut off as I'm going down the road.....occasionally it will change stations on its own like it's possessed.

    I guess this is what happens when you start building the truck in the U.S.
