Am I the only one?

99.9% of the time I turn off the vehicle listening to a Sirius XM station.

Occasionally and randomly it switches to FM station on startup.

Certainly not earth shattering but irksome.

Any thoughts?

Did you find a fix for this?

I usually use my Apple Carplay with my phone but I found recently that if I don't connect the cord right away when I get in the car, the car defaults to FM station 107.5.

The strange thing is that I don't have 107.5 anywhere in my defaults and even if I change the channel to something like 88.5, the next time I start my car, I'm back on 107.5.

Can't find anywhere to change the default / startup FM channel.

I believe my problem is created by connecting the phone before the engine is started. This sounds just the opposite of your problem.

I am starting to believe the power-up sequence is interrupted if the iPhone is connected to Carplay by USB before the start button is pressed.

Maybe it is witchcraft!
