#jensen_jims_525i Have had less than a year. After 4 months the display no longer operated in BRIGHT mode. A couple months later, display not work at all. after 9 months cannot tune in stations. and of course, it is only a 90 day warranty. and they are very specifica about telling you that when you call... and then offer to inspect it for more than the unit costs. keep looking.
