Default HD radio

Anyone having glitches when listening to radio stations that are broadcasted in HD? My 2013 seems to skip or glitch often enough that I am posting a thread because I am curious if there is an easy fix. Thanks for feedback.

There's probably nothing wrong with the radio, it's just that HD radio signals suck. Every car I've used it on has skipping/giltching due to lost signal. Sounds great and nice to have extra stations, when it works...

Go into the radio settings and uncheck HD radio.

There are spots on my commute that the station I listen goes dead for maybe ten seconds every time. Maybe twice on my 24 mile commute. I'm used to is and like the HD quality too much to turn HD off.

BTW, my BMW550 was worse.

Thanks everyone. I didn't know you could turn off the HD, so that is useful. It happens 3-4 times on a 30 minute commute. Was trying to figure out if I should ask lexus dealer to fix it while it is under certified pre owned warranty. I will probably get used to it though. Only have had the car three weeks. Love it otherwise.
