This has happened to me 4 or 5 times. It really pisses me off. I've also had where all the back speakers wont play. Uncle Sam has me deploying in 60 days so im not gonna make any changes until i get back. But i plan on changing out the Head unit and Amp to aftemarket.

Guys, doesn't happen to all, but from my research there is no fix but to get your unit replaced. Happened to me twice. Took it back to dealer and they told me that somehow my radio software became outdated. Only fix is to replace. Hope you still have the warranty.

Lock ups

Just to add to this thread. We have had ours for a week now and it has locked up for the last two days. First time it just locked up with no sound or controls. Had to shut the car down to reset. Today I had the reversing camera stay on while I drove the kids to school. Nice view but quite unnerving.

Now it is jumpy with streaming music and the iPhone cannot make calls.

Car is booked in Monday to have it looked at. Might get the Satnav checked out as well. It seems to be missing major roads that have been down for 5 years now.....!!

I noticed this on mine too, roads missing and the points of interest seems years out of date. I checked around the internet for mygig updates and there wasn't any. The Nav must be a separate system. Let us know if you have any luck with an update.

Mine locks up occasionally but works after a full reboot. A pain when on a long road trip definitely. Anybody know of a fix yet?

headunit lock ups

They could not duplicate my problem, so I started to record the issue on my phone the next time it happened, as I drove straight to the service center for them to see me "duplicate" the problem. They ordered a new head unit, awaiting installation.
