Have a 2006 Vibe. Took it to service because one station would not come in all the time. Replaced radio, antennae and booster. Raido played on the way home. Next day was back to the same problem. Will pick up all other stations. The one station that comes in and out is a local station. Back at the deaker service right now. Any input will be helpfulLarry

Maybe you need one of those long CB antennas.

maybe it's a crappy signal from the station? i would try a signal amplifier.

how about an aftermarket one? if the signal is weak, your typical stock radio might not pick it up.

Lean your head really close to the unit. My radio at home works great when I stand next to it.
