  1. Hello I own a 2015 Subaru Forester, and recently replaced the stereo Clarion unit by myself, with a second hand OEM unit, because the original died after a cross country trip. The radio was completely nonfunctional, the master screen would dim every time I turned up the headlights, and all front USB charging slots were dead. The new unit works fine. I hear rumors that the radio can be damaged like this if it is too hot outside, and also if you spend "too long" charging your phone using the USB. What workarounds do you guys use for this to protect the radio, and still be able to charge your phone inside your car? Am I just looking at upgrading the radio again when this new one dies? I purposefully invested only the fee for a used stereo with the concern that this will happen again soon. Thank you everybody.
