Angry 2011 nav/radio use glitchy w steering wheel controls

This is driving me nuts. When I hit the left steering wheel circle button to scroll through my pre-set "favorite" stations before I touch the touchscreen, it will jump to random stations or jump back and forth between stations and not "scroll." it seems to do it even moreso when I have the nav running. It is the most random glitch and is driving me absolutely insane. I have even had it sitting on the "radio" screen and watched it go from 1 to 2 then I hit the button again and it just jumped to "40s" on Sirius which I (obviously!) don't have as a preset. Please help before I lose my mind!!

Lol. When you flipped the channel back an forth fast enough you could get a quick view of some boob. Lol, I thought I was the only one who did that.

Seriously though, anyone have this issue and, more importantly, know what I can do to solve it? Thanks!

Default Same here

Mine steering wheel controls do get a bit glitchy sometimes but not as bad as your situation. Mine usually just don't register when I press one side or the other. I try again and it's good. Sorry. These 11's can be finicky. hope you work it out.

Cheers!

What position is your tilt wheel in? Has happened to me twice with the wheel all the way up. I dropped it down a hair and buttons worked again.

It's definetly not all the way up. Maybe I'll jiggle it around.
