I had an older Sont CD in my car. Sounded great when it worked, but it would sometime stop working for no apparent reason. I pulled it out about an inch and pushed it back in and it worked fine...for a while. Did this 4 or 5 times and got sick of it. Pulled and gave it to my sister for her 93 Accord. She loves it. I put an Alpine 7894 CD/MP3/XM receiver in and love it. No more intermittent problems for either deck. Go figure.
