I don't but you can try a google search for that radio. I have done numerous checks on items by doing a google search with the item in quotes and complaint following like this
'kenwood 7017'+'complaint'
Give that a try

I am thinking of installing one of these. The difference being the Eclipse offers Navigation included.

Neat unit.
I just got a Magellan Roadmate 700 from a site www.ubid.com the unit retails for $700 to $800 and I got it for $484. One of my sons wanted me to get a system like the Kenwood, but I kind of like the 6 disc CD system in dash and a seperate nav. Lets me transfer the nav system to whatever vehicle I'm driving.

One guy said he is able to use his steering wheel controls with the Eclipse 5435. I was reading these reviews.

I currently have the Kenwood in my 05 X and had it in my 03 F350 before. It has been an excellent product and functions very well. My favorite feature for road trips, etc. is the dual zone control so the wife and kid can sit in the back and listen to the movie playing and I can drive and listen to whatever I want. I will try and get some pictures soon.
That said, the Eclipse is a step up in quality and price.

This forum www.caraudioforum.com has lot of good info on all audio - video - alarms etc., if you dont mind searching through the b.s. - I went with a Pioneer Premier P860MP that I got off ebay for a third of the retail price. I like this better than the Alpines I used to have.
