The display screen on the stereo system no longer works. At times it comes on for a few minutes and then goes out again. This makes it impossible to know what station it is on, the time, adjusting the settings on the speakers, etc. I have talked to others that have this same problem.

Stereo system console light keeps going out... it has been out for a long time.. now it comes on when it wants to. And its on for about 3 minutes and goes out again and stays out a whole day and comes on the next day for about 3 minutes. My neighbor has the same vehicle and has had the same problem.
