    Question has any one experienced the audio system just turning off then restarting a few seconds later?

    I'd like to know as well. I swapped a 2014 stereo into my 2010 and it does this sometimes. No idea why.

    I had that happen a few times within the first couple years I had my 2014. In the last two years or so...hasn't rebooted at all.


    My USB port on the other hand...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

    When I had the stock headunit, yes, it would randomly happen. It wasn't too frequent for me but maybe once every few weeks/months it would reboot while driving. There was never any patterns to it happening.

    Mine does this usually for long trips, and sometimes it will just drop bluetooth audio and/or the usb in. A hard reset always fixes it so I just deal with it.

    If it's any consolation, mine has been doing it for over five years...hasn't crapped out yet (knock on wood)...

    Yes, my 2014 has done this about 6-8 times. Mostly the past three years. Keep wanting to get on Crutchfield and pull the trigger on a new system.

    $2K for the OEM Entune unit? Heck, I'll give you $20 to steal mine...

    My stock headunit in my '15 does the same. Every few weeks or so it'll randomly reboot.
