    As Brunes stated, there are MANY 09 Tacoma owners having problems with their factory radios, myself included.

    After having the truck for 5 months, I noticed the radio turned off by itself and at times, the volume control on the radio itself would but the steering wheel volume/radio controls still functioned.

    Still have to bring my truck back to the dealer for this but wonder how long the wait is for a replacement radio.

    Swapped mine this week (Jul21). Took 4 days for the dealership to get it in, including the weekend. Heard of delays in the US recently, but Canadian dealer warehouse has 'em. Looks like Delphi? is going to get a big hit on warranty chargebacks. Lowest cost bidder for parts I'll bet.
