Many also appreciate the inclusion of features such as a CD player and touch screen, along with the generally positive installation experience.

    First it's a good stereo by Pioneer, great adjustable options. The software has fallen due to 3rd party apps disappearing from the Pioneer line. Waze is no longer available (per. Waze,) no Androidauto, or carplay. I find that I wish i had kept my older model. Being able to have options for a car stereo is why I use Pioneer products. I will keep this unit but I'm afraid it will be my last

    Nice looking radio but returned it due to cost to install I was told that the installation was free but when we went to have it installed the installer said it was going to cost about $300.00 to install. So we asked why? when we were told it comes with free installation. He explained that the cost involves installation kit and labor. So we think you need to change the free installation sign on radios, because we are not the only ones who purchased a radio and thought we would get installed free like it said. So that is why we returned this radio because it was going to be $ 324.00 plus another $300.00 to install????

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      I am sorry to hear you had to return the AVH-521EX.
      Most vehicles will require a dash adapter and/or a wiring harness adapter kit. Especially with newer vehicles, these adapter kits can get expensive. PUSATechAnswers

    Everything works fine except there is not steering wheel controls. The packaging says so but the connection that requires the correct connection does not exist on the system other and the voice command is not functioning.
