“Purchased the car in august 2013 (new), factory installed stereo worked fine at time of purchase. In september 2014 stereo would not read music off phone when plugging in through usb port in vehicle, which is a feature of the stereo that is supposed to work. It worked up until that point, but then stopped and started giving messages indicating files unfounded . I have brought the vehicle to dealership for this issue to be fixed with no success.
