You may need to add clamp-on ferrites to all power and audio cables associated with that radio. Your car is picking up signal when you transmit and disrupting the electronics in the car. Try transmitting at low power and see if you get same results. Reroute your antenna coax away from car electronics bundles, if possible. Also make sure your antenna coax is not running parallel to other cable harnesses. That could allow more crosstalk. Crossing a bundle at 90degrees may eliminate it, but you will just have to experiment.
