Default Static on radio while braking

Hello from Northern Illinois. I have a 2014 v6 mustang, and lately I have noticed that when I apply my brake, my radio will get static. Has anyone experienced this? Is there something I can do myself to fix it?

Thank you,

Denise

Got that on mine too after switching the taillights from bulbs to leds... Bulbs never static, but with the leds (even with the direction indicator), I hear static once the light turns on.

Didn't really dive into this to see how to resolve it tho.

In my VW, when I brake, my CB gets static.

None of my radios do, and I put LEDs in my Mustang & VW tails.

May be a weak ground.
