Random loud static popping noise coming from speakers

Anyone else experience this? It’s extremely distracting when it happens while driving. It’s also very loud! In this video, it happened right after I parked. Sorry for the flipped video, I was in a hurry to get the sound!

No one else has machine gun fire sounds in their car?

I found something similar. Driving down I-95 on Christmas day, my screen rebooted itself (but auto cruise control still worked). After reboot, music played fine, either from Slacker or from iPhone connected to SiriusXM), in the front speakers; however, in the rear speakers I got a similar clicking sound that was quite annoying to the backseat passengers. This noise was there until I got the volume to zero (mute) at which point the noise went away. Any thoughts?

Wow that is very bad. Normally in electronics that is a grounding problem, like a loose wire connection. Your version is extreme. You can try out the new app option to schedule a service.

Made no difference with the volume control. Will be taking in once I’m back from vacation. Doubt they will know how to diagnose it though.
