    AM still works fine but most of my FM stations are now half static. A couple still come in decent (must be powerful stations that are based closed to where I live)

    Anyone know what could have happened?
    Nothing out of the ordinary happened to the car prior to this.

    Thanks

    Gotta ask the dumb question: you did check the antenna:

    1. That it's there.
    2. Unscrew it, check condition of threads. (Just thinking if threads are massively corroded or something like that.)
