Was nervous to install at very first due to my older radio breaking down, but ever since I’ve installed the JVC radio it has made my life much easier to answer calls and see the reverse camera and get the best type of option like a newer car would had in my Toyota RAV4!!!

JVC always delivers! Nice bright screen and easy to use UI. Bought for the Android Auto and wired connection. ( I don't need wireless ) . The included microphone is actually clear. 10/10 would buy again.

Stephen was super helpful in guiding me on the right unit for my car. He set up the installation and while it took a bit more time to install they did a good job. The original steering wheel interface didn't seem to work but I called and they swapped it out for a working model and now everything functions like it should. The guys were knowledgable and polite. I'd give it 5 stars if it worked on first try but still a good overall experience and they stood by their work to make it work.

Bought this as a Christmas gift for my son that does lots of driving. This gives him the ability to use Android Auto for his Waze app and charging his phone at the same time. My son has a 2008 Ford Escape XLT.
There are videos out there about installing similar radios into the Escape, but they talk about cutting the OEM harness. This does not have to be done. Ford uses a data line with their OEM stereo systems to power them on, so in the existing OEM harness there isn't a +12V ACC line. You will need to get something to wire directly to the fuse box. I got a "Littelfuse Blister Pack Fuse Holder - FHM200BP" from a local O'Reilly Auto for a few bucks and used fuse #37 in the fuse box (might be different for yours) as that would come up when the ACC was turned on, but no voltage when the key is off. I also picked up an antenna adapter.
The fuse holder was wired to the red line going into the radio side of the harness. Everything else was wired to existing harness as normal, but followed for the speakers as they might be different for your radio. I have included the OEM wiring and the harness to help.
Great stereo with the Android Auto!

10 out of 10. I’ve had it for about 7 months and I’m still figuring stuff about it everyday. Got it in my wife’s car. And im going to buy another for my car!

Awsome It looks really good in my dash and so convenient to have everything at your fingertips. Back up camera is quality and works great when backing into my trailer

I first installed a carplay JVC radio in lynchburg, they told me they needed a additional receiver just to keep the steering wheel controls even though it said it would come with steering wheel support I paid an extra 180 just for that they told me they could install it closer to me in Charlottesville that was the worst decision I made because the one in Charlottesville only had one guy doing the installation he broke my dashboard and if I hadn't gotten the warranty I would of had to pay even more to fix the dashboard thankful I got the warranty and it was covered but still took a week to get the part shipped and for it to be fixed. I would not recommend having anything installed at the Charlottesville location because the people in Lynchburg got my dashboard off with no problem and didn’t break it. Other then that I like the product

BRICKED. I had issues with this unit off the bat but just bit my tongue to make it work since it is a budget head unit. Actually scheduled an appointment with the service team to fix the issues but after talking, we figured I could do a firmware update myself. Easy!
Well, it seems it would have been but the unit froze mid update and is now a BRICK. I have reached out to Best Buy and am waiting on a response but my assumption is I am out of luck since I did this update myself.
DO NOT DO THE FIRMWARE UPDATES.
