05 is still under warranty. Just take it back to the dealer and have it fix.

Good luck!

It's a 06 still under warranty just trying to save a trip to the dealer and leaving car there and all the hassle that goes long with that.

Mine has done that a couple times over the course of a year. Next time I start the car it's always been back to normal.

This happened to me twice. The first time it happened the dealer just loaded new software into the Comand to fix the problem. The next time it happened (no sound from CD, IPOD or radio) the dealer found a leak in my trunk seal and a shorted out electronic controller of some sort and replace both. Problem fixed to date.

well this morning went to start the car and battery was dead. Charged the battery, tested it and it check out ok. Then started car and command turned right on like nothing happened, I checked the charging system and that checked out fine. Had appointment at the dealer today so I still went and they said they have seen a lot of seat modules go bad and draw on the battery so they checked it out everything ok but put updated software in the command. well I will see what happens now seems to be perfect.
