Good to know. Thank you , sir!

I am in a wooded area, and the reception is bad based on my area. Can't change the area though! I am looking to swap out the factory antenna with an aftermarket one. If it gives me the reception I assume it will, I'll post it up.

Did you install the new antenna? If so, what were your results?

I'm a 5-1/2 year SiriusXM subscriber. Worked great in a 2011 Camaro 2LT/RS and a 2011 Camaro 2SS/RS. I just bought a new 2017 ZL1 and the signal drops constantly. Took it to the dealer and they gave me a 2017 1LT as a loaner. Reception in the loaner car was also great. They gave me the ZL1 back and said that all the software was current and radio was operating according to spec. Reception is still terrible. Trying to get them to explain why a new Camaro and two old ones had good radios but my new ZL1 doesn't. No joy yet.

Would appreciate replies from anyone who's been successful in getting this fixed.

I frequently drive round trips from Vegas to LA, and the reception on my XM is flawless.

Course, I don't live where there are "heavily wooded areas..."

Had the car 5 months now and it still works, so I guess I got the full year.....

There is a bulletin out about XM reception. If you notice XM muting in the same spot it could be due to interference from AT&T. Apparently if AT&T does work on their cellular towers sometime it creates interference that disrupts the XM audio. The answer is to call XM customer care and report the location (intersection, cross streets, direction of travel). They will contact AT&T and they can do something to reduce the interference. I reported a couple of locations and one day I realized it was no longer a problem.

OK, where/to what number do you report AT&T Reception problem areas?

When I got my 2015 Camaro I had very few issues except the usual overpasses, etc but since the start of the year, I am passing satellite towers and completely lose signal for 15 minutes! Even driving next to tall trees or a tractor trailer blocks my signal now, so something has changed and it is driving me crazy! I love my SXM Radio, but hate all the new disturbances in signal!
