    Just like its predecessor, it skips to different sources on its own requiring me to adjust while driving.

    I wanted this to better see controls. Install genie said it fit. The people in the work area said I had to go with smaller unit. I verified this would have fit. I was told some minor cutting would be required. Not hard, just minor saws all to open an area. They wouldn’t budge.

    Had installed in a 2006 ford mustang gt that had the factory shaker 500 radio in it. Replaced so we could listen to pandora thru the phone as we couldn't with the factory radio. Poor quality sound compared to the factory radio.

    Took an hour to find all equipment. I ran late for work because it took 5 hrs to complete installment. Now my passenger door does not open from the inside after the door speakers were installed. Total disaster.

    The one we received was a dud would smoke everytime we hooked it up! Wiring was done right and everything. Would blow the fuse and then just keep smoking.

    Never did get the stereo. Would have taken 3 weeks to get it. Then I had to go back and ask for the rest of my refund. They only gave me half of what I paid. Not happy with best buy.

    What genius let someone return a radio and keep all the wires, antennas, the microphone and all the manuals and paperwork? At the time of purchase there were no new radios for sale, so I settled on an open box. What I wasn’t expecting was a box with JUST a radio and bubble wrap. That’s actual BS. We spent more money than a brand new radio costs getting all the wires and the plastic housing delivered, when it could’ve been provided in the return. Again, fire whoever allowed the original owner to return JUST the radio. You can’t expect the customer to run around finding wiring harnesses and ordering from Amazon. Maybe I’m wrong and these radios don’t come with any wires, or housings. But returning JUST the radio and putting it in an unmarked box is insanely scummy and shouldn’t be allowed. It even has a bunch of little surface scratches. So clearly it had been used. And somehow Best Buy accepted it back? The radio however, is very very nice. It looks awesome, there’s colors you can chose to make it look stock, and calls come in very clear. It’s all very very nice and audio sounds even better than I remembered the stock head unit being. I would highly recommend getting one. Fits and looks perfect in our 2010 F350.
