    My 2017 Limited has the JBL Premium Audio. I have a USB flash drive set up with folders by Artist, and then sub-folders under each Artist with MP3's for each CD by that Artist. Like for AC/DC there is a folder "ACDC", then 11 folders under that one (one for each AC/DC album).

    For a number of months recently, I had the JBL set on Random, so it would skip around through the 200 or so albums on the flash drive and randomly play something.

    I could SWEAR that before ever using RANDOM, that the Up/Down seek button on the JBL or on the steering wheel would step through each cut in sequence for whichever album was selected, and when it reached the end of that album it would move to the NEXT album by that Artist, or to the next Artist if it had reached the end of the first Artist's albums. NOW it seems that no matter what I do, the seek buttons will only rotate through the cuts on the selected album (after the last cut it returns to the first cut). The only way to move to another album is to Browse to it.

    This doesn't seem right. Am I not remembering correctly how this worked when the truck was new (before I ever chose RANDOM)? If it should work the way I want it to work, how do I get back there? I've been struggling with this for weeks now.
