Problem with radio in 2009 Ford Escape?

Having a problem with my radio in my 2009 Escape with Sync radio. It will cut out consistently for 1 second every 5 seconds. Does not lose power to radio, only the sound cuts out. I typically only use Bluetooth to listen to music from my iphone so I thought maybe it had something to do with that, however, it happens on all channels (AM, FM, Aux, Satellite, & CD) whether phone is on or off. A small static sound can even be heard when it is in Aux mode without music playing. No other electrical issues and no warning lights. The only recent repair was several weeks ago, motor to back right passenger power window was replaced. Radio worked well for a couple weeks after that. Broken up songs are driving me just as crazy as complete silence.

It's time for a replacement. Get an aftermarket head unit.

  • Which USB can I use with my 2009 CTS? I've been looking to download some music onto a flash drive since my CTS won't recognize my iphone and I wouldn't want to keep it in there anyways. I was just curious about the process of putting the music onto the flash drive and then playing it through the car… I obviously use iTunes for all of my music and assume that it's compatible with the car. Also are there any USBs that aren't compatible? What are some that work without a doubt.
  • My husband's 2009 Prius auxillary isn't working? My husband's 2009 auxiliary isn't working. We have auxiliary service that used to work then stopped when I used it with my iphone. It doesn't even show up on the screen when the car is turned on with his Iphone. There isn't any info in the handbook on the car. How do we activate it?
  • I have a ford fiesta zetec (2009) and my hazard lights have stopped working? I have also lost the bluetooth symbol on my radio with no option to turn it back on, and my iphone can't find my radio. This all happened over the last week when I had a new head light bulb fitted. Can anyone help please?
