Radio/CD Lock-Up

I've had my car about 2 months and about 7 times so far, when I start the car, I get "LOCK" displayed on my base radio. I know this is the radio theft lock not reading the car computer and a car restart does fix it, but I'm wondering if this happens to anyone else.

Check your owners manual.
I remember reading about this. I don't have mine handy, so I can't check

From the factory the theft lock is not enabled, you or someone that test drove the car before you must have set it. If it is enabled you can take it to the dealer and they can reset it for you. As far as i know it doesnt read from the computer of the car it only detects when the power is lost, then it activates itself.

I had this same problem with my '05. Dealer ended up replacing with a 2006 radio. Now I have a vibration around 3k in between shifts coming from right above the radio. Even a new dashpad didn't make it go away.
