Default 2016 audio problems

have had my car back to the dealer and it is still there-radio speakers especially in am the speakers sound like they are cracked-also when the temp is hot or you have had your radio turned up it starts to sound really mid to high treble almost to the point it hurts your ears-also the mp3/ipod some times it works and others it just buzzes in all 3 inputs and also it will get locked into the input and no way of getting it out. Any one else have any of these problems? It is pissing me off when the dealer states that they could get it to do it but its the high tension wires doing it and even gm stated they have not been any problems.


Thanks Mark

I haven’t had the problem. With that said, I would take it to a stereo shop that has the equipment and skill to look at the signal coming into the amp and out of the amp. It could be an impedance problem in the wiring but most probably it is a problem with the amp. A dealership tech probably does not have the equipment and/or skill to analize the problem. You could go to a wrecking yard and get an amp and try a swap yourself. Good luck.

A amp would be the first thing that comes to mind-we all paid top dollar for our cars and they come with a warranty and I intend to use that. I have thought about taking it to a specialist that may happen in the near future.

Thanks
