 Works when it feels like it December 12, 2008

This product is supposed to restore full functionality of steering wheel controls. How ever I noticed that it doesn't always work. Usually the next song button stops working or it magically changes into previous song for either of the buttons. The volume button always works that isn't an issue. The mode button also does crazy stuff where it sometimes turns the device on or off, other times it may just mute it while it is still on, other times it changes the function from USB to Radio etc... Strange! Not to pleased with this product when it isn't working (40% of the time) but happy when it is (60% of the time)

hardly ever works, not realiable. When it works, the button I press is not what executes.

I purchased this along with a new head unit for my car. Upon installation it worked intermittently for a short time, say a day or two, but then suddenly stopped responding to button pushes.
I contacted tech support and they walked through some troubleshooting but ultimately decided that I had a defective unit and we set up a replacement.
Upon receiving and installing the replacement the exact same thing happened- the device would work intermittently for a day or two before completely failing to respond.
I've installed just about every piece of car audio equipment I've ever owned, so I'm not a novice but I took it to a local installation, just in case the problem was me.
Want to know something funny? They refused to install it. They claimed they have had nothing but problems with the device and have completely stopped installing them as a result.
This is essentially a ~$45 paperweight, and an ugly one at that. I highly recommend against purchasing it.

I have been working on my own electronics gear for years. I am way beyond the novice level and if it payed well, I could do this for a living.
I would not recommend this product for use in a newer chevrolet. The tech rep from the company told me when we were trouble shooting that they have had issues with this unit in the chevys.
With the advice he gave me we got the unit to work briefly. He decided, after a few more frustrating trys, that the unit itself was defective.
Fortunately, Amazon has excellent customer service and they issued my request for a replacement immediately.
I have zero confidence in the new unit and expect the same frustrating experience when I receive the replacement. So, unless you just like challenges and chasing down tech support on the phone, just avoid this product.
UPDATE: I got the new unit and spent another frustrating day with tech support. I tried using a relay to switch the unit on and rewired to a different source and ground... still does not work! The tech-rep now thinks it is the brand of aftermarket wire-harness I used, since it is not a PAC brand. Yea, RIGHT!!!
