2018 Kia Sorento, 34k km. Radio stops working after a few crackling noise, and no radio until you reach your destination. When you turn off your car, after 15 min. you turn it back on the radio starts working, after 1/2 hour of travel it starts over again and stops working. Anyone having same problem?

Anyone else having this problem also needs a new radio, as do you. Since this is a 2018, it is probably covered by the warranty. Just take it to the dealer.
