Just wanted to let you all know that I received in today's mail a notice from Ford Motor Company entitled "Keep Your CD Changer in Tune." The notice is a reminder about the "proper usage" of the CD changer in our vehicle. It says:

"The CDx6 changer in your vehicle is designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75 in.) audio compact discs only. CDs that are irregularly shaped, contain a scratch protection film or have an adhesive paper label should not be inserted into your CDx6 changer. Over time, the label may cause the CD to become stuck in the CDx6 changer. If you wish to play homemade recordable CDs in your vehicle, it is recommended that you use a permanent felt tip marker to identify the disc. If you have any questions or concerns about the CDx6 changer in your vehicle, please contact the Ford Motor Company Customer Relationship Center at 1-800-392-3673. At the prompt, select Option 3, then Option 2."

Jamming problems with the Thunderbird's CD player have been discussed on this board before, but this is the first official notice about the issue released by Ford.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info, Paula. I haven't had any trouble with mine (knock on wood), but I would imagine that heat has something to do with the jamming problems. My unit gets very warm, and I'll bet paper labels just get too hot.
