My AM and FM radio stations were silent but the Sirius stations operated fine. Customer service could not provide an answer so I scheduled a visit to the dealer. On the drive to the dealer, I noticed a button on FM stations "Refresh". When I pressed this button, after a few minutes all stations were updated and all AM and FM stations were working.

I have a weird issue. Every once in a while, the FM radio stations (I think AM as well) are silent. I can tune to them, but there is no audio. XM works fine. If I turn the vehicle off and back on, the FM stations are fine again.

Haven't sen anyone else report that. The vehicle is still new (late Dec and < 2,000 km). I haven't had it in for any service yet so haven't had it looked it - I know these sort of occasional issues are hard to diagnose.. Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen.

well, see if you can repro the issue....get it in that 'no audio mode', and bring to dealer and do not
turn it off, keep that silent mode on and get a tech to pop out and show them
how it's silent, and restart, it's not silent. that way the problem writeup will be
solid and they can get to work on firmware upgrade or replacement

or take a good video of this and show to service tech
