2013 F150 AM radio volume goes up and down on its own

I have a 2013 F150 King Ranch pretty well loaded up. In the last several thousand miles (I have approximately 45,000 miles on it), the AM radio, which I listen to a lot, has the volume go up and down on its own. Very annoying. i took it to the dealer to have it analyzed and fixed and after 3 days, came back and said Ford said to start w replacing antennas (all) @ a tune of approximately $450, WITH NO GUARANTEES! Unbelievable! Then it that didn't work, replace the radio.

Well in reading some forums, it appears this has been going on a long time and it appears that Ford doesn't seem to care. This is the first Ford I've owned and I as a business owner, have owned many, many Chev PU's over the years with no problems. My 2010 Suburban doesn't have this problem w twice the miles.

Pretty sad when you take it to the dealer you buy it from and you can't get a fix w factory trained people.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, but I think I'm relegated to have a defective radio unless I want to spend big bucks. Thanking all commenters in advance!

Could it be the speed volume feature?

Maybe try disabling that and going from there...

My thoughts also speed sensitive settings.
