Unhappy radio problem

Only 3 weeks old, and it appears that there is a problem with my radio. It seems like there is a vibration coming from both door speakers. No matter how much I adjust the bass/treble etc, it is still there. Also, the speed compensated volume is very sensitive. The volume changes slightly when there is no apparent change in noise level. Lastly, the volume on the radio went from soft to loud all on its own. This happenned about 4 times so far.

So needless to say the dealer has my car. One of the technicians was able to verify the vibration in the speakers, and he determined it is coming from the doors.

Has anyone encountered anything like this? I am quite upset that the car is already in for Service, and hope that this can be remedied.

Any feedback would be great!!

Yes, I have noticed a nasty resonance-like vibration from the speakers in the doors on my car, but I am waiting a few weeks before I will let the dealer take care of this and other minor problems with the car that has cropped up during break-in.

Radio Problems

My radio is being replaced on Wednesday actually.
The volume jumps to extreme levels whenever you have had the radio on, shut down the car, and then come back and start the car. It has also done this a few times while driving. I honestly think that I have permanent ear damage as a result! The dealer claims that the speakers (Bose) have not been damaged but I find it hard to beleive although there is no crackling or hissing right now.

Any similiar experiences???

Do you think it stems from the head unit or the Bose noise circuitry in the amps?
