If factory it may be time for a new stereo. If it already has an aftermarket stereo: I would remove the head unit and bench test it. If it seems fine then I would rewire the stereo or have it tested and/or rewired. Be sure the ground is ran to the vehicle chassis at bare metal and securely attached.
