Chevrolet Trax radio stays on after turning off the car and opening the door on Chevrolet Trax

Some Chevrolet Trax owners report experiencing issues with the radio staying on after turning off the car and opening the door. This problem may be linked to a malfunction in the driver's door lock assemblies, which can cause the system to incorrectly detect that the driver's door is open. Additionally, some owners find that a faulty power button on the radio unit itself can lead to unexpected activation of the radio, necessitating a replacement of the unit. Electrical system malfunctions, such as problems with the ignition switch or wiring, may also contribute to this issue, requiring inspection of the head unit wiring and ignition components. Furthermore, battery problems can prevent the radio from receiving the correct signals to shut off. To address these concerns, owners are advised to contact a GM dealer if under warranty, hold the power button on the radio as a temporary fix, and ensure the battery is in good condition.
