I've owned the Ascent for 6 months and love it, but I have noticed some weird things with the radio unit. The first problem is with music playback. I mostly listen to music through my iPhone or via Satellite radio and noticed pretty quickly the radio unit would skip out playback for a second, like losing the signal on regular radio station. It's very brief, the music is back on before you can even react. At first I thought it was just my old iPhone, but I got a new one just a few weeks ago and the same issue is happening. I started to suspect it was the radio unit before I got the new phone because I noticed the skip on Satellite radio and regular radio too now.
In the last couple of days a new issue has arrived, I love to listen to Sports talk radio in the morning but the other day all of my A.M. stations were silent, you can tune in the stations but no sound came out, if I changed to XM or FM it worked. I shut the car off and turned back on and the AM stations were playing again. That was weird. Today as I driving in, I was listening to WFAN on AM for about 15 minutes, and then it went silent again, all AM stations, but FM and XM was fine. I figure I have a bad radio but wanted to see if others are having similar issues.
