Audio Question - Radio Cutting Off

Something strange happened yesterday. I was driving along (normal highway speed) when my audio system cut itself off. I was listing to CD5 in the changer, when the entire system shut off. About 4 seconds later, it came back on, and started playing again (from the spot it stopped).

This morning, on the way to work, I played the radio.
But when I got to work and pulled into our parking garage, I started playing CD1. It played fine. But when I got to my parking space, and started backing into the parking space, it cut off again. But the time I stopped backing, it had come back on and was playing normally again....

I wasn't blasting the volume either..

What's wrong?
Is something loose?

Has this happened to anybody else????

Mention P-B-82.60/360a - checks AGW (audio gateway) for stored fault codes and replaces if necessary.

In addition, P-B-82.62/226c AUDIO50 (cassette player) head unit software update - DIY, purchase service disc (tool) W211589122200 and install

P-B-82.60/360a is a Service Bulletin number that was released to the Service departments telling them what to do to fix a problem.

The second item is a part from the Parts Department (a CD) that when inserted into the head unit will update the burned in software of the unit.

If this still makes no sense to you, print & cut out the instructions above without any names displaying & show it to your SA at the Service Department when you tell them the problems you are having.
