This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Chevrolet dealer.
so yea, bought the car and within hours of havening it i started getting the locked message on radio. it would also give me an ERR message. I didn't care to much, just had to restart car, and it only would happen seconds after starting the car. but after about a year of stupid cobaltness my key got stuck in the ignition and shifter stuck in park, so when i got it towed to the dealership, i told them about the radio, they diagnosed it, and replaced it under warranty. well new radio does same thing.

I turned on the car and then pressed the radio button on. I heard the music for about 2 seconds, and then heard a beep. I looked down at the radio, and saw the word "Lock" written where the clock display normally is. I tried turning the radio on and off, but nothing would make it go away. I had to turn the car off and turn it back on to make the radio work again. This car seemed like such a great deal when I bought it a few months ago, I wish I had of read the reviews first, since mine also has had the key getting stuck in the ignition column problem.

Car radio randomly goes into lock mode. have returned the car to the dealership several times. they do not know why this happens or how to fix it. dealership says Chevrolet claims they have never had this complaint before.
