Haunted radio.

From day 1 the radio has been malfunctioning. The reverse camera Stayed on for a quarter mile after putting in drive. I have had it looked at and they said a factory reset. It's still happening now it's out of control the radio station Travels through multiple stations, back-and-forth period it is randomly dialing People on my phone it is shutting off and turning back on. My - lights dim In the dark and our bright in the light. There has been a rattling in The dashboard for a long time and they can't seem to find what it is.I thought for sure there would be a recall on this radio.this is getting scary to drive.
