problem #1

Veracruz Limited 3.8L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 147,000 miles

Whenever its sunny and over 75 degrees F, the radio doesn't work. The Navigation system still works (without sound) but no radio, XM or CD. Also the 6-disk facing won't even open. Also, for 2 years now, if I drive somewhere (for more than a few minutes), turn off my car (i.e. at a gas station or fast food restaurant), and restart car, the radio won't work. So the problem somehow has to due with heat. But I have no idea of a remedy. The dealer wanted to charge me $2,000 for a new radio unit, but I'm not really sure that's the root cause. I think its an electrical wiring issue of some sort. But I can't find any info on the internet about similar occurrences.

Update from Dec 27, 2021: My audio system eventually stopped working all together and hasn’t worked in several years.
