Default Radio Clock falling behind?

I have to keep resetting my factory radios clock.

It keeps falling behind.


Just the basic radio.


Anyone else with the same problem?

Mine did to, and I know the fix. Disconnect the battery for 1/2 hour. Reconnect and reset time.

The radio needs to have a software update. Ask your dealer as I believe there is a TSB for it.

Do you know the tsb name or number because I've had this problem since day one and told the dealer about it and they didn't mention a tsb for it

same exact issue, I've been wondering if a fix was available or if the clock was just crap.
