    I noticed a very strange thing today while driving and realized it has happened a couple of times before.

    Things happen in this sequence...

    1 - I am listening to FM radio - a channel that is preset
    2 - A cellphone call comes in with the handsfree bluetooth
    3 - I talk on the handsfree for a while and the conversation ends
    4 - The radio comes back on - but only static/white noise is heard while the station/preset/frequency I was listening to is displayed.
    5 - the station I was listening to returns only if I change frequency/station/present and then return or if I just go to another radio station/preset.

    Has anyone else noticed this?

    This happens to me all the time. Not sure what the issue is, but I will ask dealer next time I go to the shop.

    Did your dealer tell you any information about this issues, I have experienced this issue with many different cell phones over the years and my dealer told me he wasn't aware of any problems, and could not find anything in the database.
