The radio LCD has distorted on me several times. The last time it happened I took digital pictures so I can prove it to the dealership when I take it in for service.

We have 3K miles on our RAV4 2006 with the JBL system, and when the hot weather hit us, pushing 112F, our radio display also started acting up. Also we had trouble getting the radio to turn off.
It continues to misbehave even after the weather has become normal again, so while heat may have or may have not triggered it, the underlying issue is not dependant on heat. I am suspecting a short or electrical issue in the head unit or power to it, and since others are seeing it, it must be a quality or assembly issue at the factory. We are about to take it into Toyota to get it resolved.

JVC Premium Display Mess

I know i've read other problems relating to the JVC stereo. Twice now the display on mine has changed to several blocks across the display with nothing else visible. Unit works, but you can't tell what it's doing. Has anyone else experienced. Called dealer, bring back so we can see. Problem is next time i start it up it probably will be fine (plan to swing by when acting up and leave motor running etc.). Also asked dealer about hesitation problems. No, none reported. Yeah right.

yes. i took my RAV in, and they found out TODAY that that a 6 point connector was installed backwards. It happened before the vehicle was recieved at the dealorship. Champion Toyota in Austin, Texas is my dealorship, if you need information on this problem.

Surprising if something installed backwards it worked at all. But i'm armed with this latest info when i stop by to discuss with the local dealership service manager tonight. Wonder if they have a new number or whatever, date code, mfg. date, anything that can be referred to when ordering replacement units. They should be asking these questions though, not the customers. But, ya gotta do what ya gotta do anymore.

6 Disc Radio Problems continue

Just browsing thru Consumers Reports. Checking Lexus 07 SUV. And lookie here. Apparently problems continue even in their 07 model. Doesn't give me a warm/fuzzy feeling about to get my 1st replacement 6 disc stereo. Here's text from someone rating their 07 Lexus
I brought the car in April 06. It is now August 06, and I am already replacing the
CD player for a second time. After googling this issue, I find that it is endemic
to Lexus multi-CD players and certain Toyotas, yet Lexus has not done anything to
address the problem (and the dealer acts surprised when you bring it back with this
problem). This seems unacceptable in a car with an MSRP over $46K.
