Radio problem! Help!! 2011 Dodge Nitro Heat!
2011 Dodge Nitro Heat:
My CD player works just fine, my Sirus XM Preview works just fine but my AM/FM does not play.. I can do all the functions on the actual radio but no sound ( Change Station, Turn volume up and down). Randomly I was playing around with the radio and turn the volume up and no sound came out. I got distracted and had to go to the trunk and when I opened the trunk the radio came on.. I dont think it was because of the trunk but I think the timing was perfect. Once i shut the car off the radio didnt work again. But.. the other day the radio was working fine until i shut the car off and then turned it back on it started to not work now... I recently purchased this Dodge Nitro and there was the pervious owner name on an invoice for tires in the golve box so i called the chyrsler 1800 number to see if there was an recalls or software up dates when that owner owned it that he fixed, she was able to give me the information because I had his name but the only thing that he had fixed ( Under Warrenty) was in 2011 the "Radio/Gatway modual replaced w/ echange unit" not sure what that means... CAN SOME ONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! |
Probably the "exchange" unit (which means refurbished) is failing again. Probably a dealer fix.

jkeaton: Someone said to change the antenna
or the radio to an aftermarket radio do you think that will work? Thanks! |

Has your dealership addressed the issues you're having with your Nitro? Kori Dodge Social Care Specialist |
The vehicle is out of warranty. I'm trying to find out if other nitro owners are having the same problem and what is the fix.

My Dodge Nitro has problems with the radio system thinking my phone is in use when the phone isn't. It gets stuck in this mode until I actually shut down my phone totally; then my radio works. This happens intermittently. Unfortunately my Dodge dealer who has warrantied my vehicle says there is no software fix. What does that mean? I just can't use my phone anymore? Love my Dodge Nitro but between this and my a/c which breaks down every year and they can't seem to fix, I'm thinking my dealer's service department doesn't know how to fix things or they want to wait for my warranty to run out before they do anything for me.

Escalate to the next level. Have you demonstrated the issue to the service adviser?
