Hello gentlemen! Encountered what I would say is our first real issue with our 5 month old LR4 last night. Drove my wife to a friend house, and while en route, I turned down the volume of the radio (on a local FM station) and after I dropped her off, I went to turn the volume back up. Nothing, absolutely nothing. The screen was still on the radio FM audio screen, but the volume knob did not work. Then when I tried to change the channel to another FM channel, nothing happened. Same goes for trying to change it to the Sat. screen, and or CD input. I tried turning it "on / off" and that did nothing.
I needed gas anyway, so I figured I'd turn the truck off, and then back on to see if it cleared. Unfortunately, when I did this, the entire information screen (even the back up camera) went completely dead. Black screen (as would appear if it were completely turned off). Nothing worked on the screen at all. Would not respond to "on / off" inputs or placing the vehicle into "reverse, forward, back into reverse", or NAV or anything.
Fast forward to this morning, and when I started up the vehicle, everything seems to be working normally. What is also weird is that about a month ago, we got into the vehicle and when we turned the radio on, all the speakers on the "right side" of the vehicle were "off" as if you went to the audio screen and physically turned down all the right side speakers to off. The left side worked fine, including the sub-woofer, but it was as if the speaker wires to the entire right side of the vehicle were cut. After we got to our destination and turned the vehicle off, we restarted the vehicle and all the speakers came back on again. It only did that once, but it seemed to have corrected itself as it's not done that again.
Also, something else that we noticed a few weeks ago, is that the drivers side front window "auto up" feature does not seem to work. It does the "auto down", but not the "auto up". All the rest of the windows work fine, including the drivers controls for all windows and the individual window buttons, but not the drivers window / button. Anyone else seen this? I almost assume it's as if the function has been disabled, but I can't figure out where you'd even do this. I was planning on taking it the dealer at some point and ask as it's not really that big a deal, but now with the "radio wack out problem" I encountered last night, I'm thinking it needs to go in sooner rather then later.
Anyone else see either of these issues? Am I doing something wrong? We have 7500 miles on the beast and have not had any other issues. We love the truck and it's a BEAST in the snow providing you put it into "snow" mode. Also, I can't recommend enough the OEM rubber floor mats. I've never seen a better constructed, better fitting all weather mat in any vehicle. Simply superb! We are supposed to get from 8 to 12" of snow between tonight and tomorrow, so I'm kind of excited to go exploring if we really get that much. We got 4" the other night and I had some fun running around town on un-plowed streets.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Joe
