When does the radio volume go up or down?

It goes up, it goes down, all on it’s own without any input from us. Here are some observations: Only happens when the car is in motion, at a stand-still it is fine.

How can I Fix my Chevy Colorado radio?

The fix was for me to go to the settings button, on the radio, press the sound button and I had a choice of 2 options, 1 was to turn the volume down for start up, (it was almost all the way up) by sliding the bar all the way left. I did that, shut off the truck, came back in 5 minutes, turned it back on and the radio did not go on.
