Anyone else have issues with there xm dropping signal? I am really disappointed with it. My F250 works great my bmw great the camaro sucks.

Mine works good. Cuts out every now and then.

XM sucks for dropping where I live. My wife has Sirius and it works great. I was told that even though they combined that they still use their own satellites and Sirius has three to XM's two.

Mine only cuts out (when I'm subscribed :P) when I pull under any type of roof or are alongside tall trees.

I've rode in cars where their signal never cut out anywhere. Mine seems weak. Works great in the open.

mine cut's off when i go under an overpass or under the roof while putting gas other than that work's good.

I don't mind that it drops out, but i mind that it reposts the song title on the HUD every time it does.

jnaugle775 · 05-18-2011, 10:25 PM

Its like a bird flys over and pooff its gone. I never have trouble with the other cars, but they are sirrius so maybe thats the reason?

My signal is pretty reliable. The only time I have issues is when I'm under something or in a garage. Never really gave this much concern because I figured this was typical performance.

It is typical performance...which is why it sucks.
Great programming, terrible sound, horrible customer service. It drops out EVERYWHERE!
Damn...I just renewed...

Mine sucks too, and I hate how every channel has different audio volume. I was considering signing up after the free stuff is over but I just can pay for something that has commercials.

Never had this issiue

Ronn · 05-19-2011, 02:41 AM

Drops out all of the time. Awful signal.

mrh923 · 05-19-2011, 04:26 AM

All the time...I will not be renewing that crap. They tried calling me to renew, and said I needed to keep it for the "element of surprise"...lmao. how about some no!
