I installed the receiver in my 2011 Toyota Camry earlier this year in April 2025. It was a great fit and I loved it so much when I was considering an upgrade for my 1996 Mazda pickup, I ordered another without a second thought. Each installation went smoothly, and looked and sounded excellent afterwards. I can't recommend this receiver highly enough.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for sharing your fantastic review, DTee!
We are absolutely thrilled to hear how much you love your XAV-AX3200 receiver and that you decided to choose it again for your 1996 Mazda pickup! It’s incredibly rewarding to know that you are so pleased with the fit, the sound, and the excellent appearance of the unit in both your 2011 Toyota Camry and your second vehicle.
Hearing that both installations went smoothly and that you can't recommend this receiver highly enough is the best feedback we could ask for.
Thank you again for your strong endorsement and for choosing Sony to upgrade the driving experience in both of your vehicles!
Best regards, Gus, Sony North America Customer Support
Bought this about a month ago and very happy with my choice. Been wanting to bring my 2004 Silverado into today with the new technology and carplay integration and this unit does everything I need and want. Behind this double din unit is a single din chassis that leaves plenty of room to store the wiring harness. Perfect replacement for the factory unit in my truck and this Sony unit fits the bill.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Tim, great! We're glad you like your new car stereo! Thanks for choosing Sony. ~Earl
Working good so far. Stands up well in Minnesota cold, connects to Bluetooth right away, easy set up and settings. I have noticed when connecting to USB so I can drive with my OnX hunt or maps on it disconnects quickly, goes in and out ...otherwise good for the price etc.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had this since September of 2023. It was working great until about 6 months ago where I noticed sometimes it does not connect to my iPhone and sometimes it does not play certain radio stations. Even if I am within city limits, some stable stations do not work. The other thing I tried that did not work was the run software update. It keeps telling me USB Disk not found. I followed all the steps but it still did not work. Can be annoying.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This receiver will not hold its identification of the USB music on a flash drive. It works for a while then stops, saying it does not recognize the files. You have to do a soft reset then it recognizes it again. What's up with that? It also loses the connection to the phone all the time.
I purchased this for my dad and he loves it on his Highlander the sound quality is exceptional and it turned out great on the install . The headunit fit the openings very well with Crutchfield selling us the radio and parts
Sony has released only one update since the release of this model. With that update they didn’t address most of the issues or functions that needed improvement. Since then still nothing. SONY please improve the CarPlay and WebLink functions!
