So yesterday my car finally showed the passanger restarint malfunction code so i thought nothing of it because i was just gone get it fixed under the recall..but later that night when i went to use my rear defrost button my radio became staticky all of a sudden but the day before i used it everything was fine so im guessing because my car finally showed the passanger code that its causing the defrost button to interfere with my radio for some reason..i hope the dealer can fix this..anyone have this problem with their car when they got the error message

There may be a problem with the antenna elements in the rear window or possibly something wrong with the diversity amplifier located above the rear window (behind the headliner.)
