my 2006 mazda 3 seems to have a haunted radio because quite frankly it works when it wants to. I'll start the car up and switch on my tunes and the radio is off- so I turn up the volume to 8-9 and still off so I get angry and start my 40 minute commute to work approximately 23.5 minutes into my commute the radio turns on firing 200 decibels of bob and tom in my ear talking about God knows what, I scramble to turn it down and barely avoid crashing. I get to work and do my 10 hours get back in the car turn it on and the radio is dead again. It seems to happen at totally random sometimes it will go 6-7 days and work every day all day, some days it will turn on after 23.5 minutes of driving, some times it stays off for 2-3 days. I'm assuming there is surely an issue with the center console because some of the other things seem to not work like the time always speeds up or slows down(not sure I stopped using the clock because of it). The automatic volume increase(with the speed of the car) doesnt function either. The windshield wipers are either on turtle or rabbit with nothing in the middle. Anyway- anyone know the issue here other than ghosts or something?

Thanks
