Consumer Description

I OWN A 2006 TOYOTA RAV4 LIMITED. THE DIGITAL RADIO CONTROLS OCCAISIONALLY BECOME INACTIVE AND THE DISPLAY GOES BLANK OR BECOMES ILLEGIBLE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE ONLY CONTOL THAT WORKS IS THE MODE AND VOLUME BUTTON ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE PROBLEM CORRECTS ITSELF WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF AND THEN RESTARTED. *JB
