No issues with sound, apart from the horrible rattle in the doors.
I happened to plug in an iPhone for Apple Carplay and from what I could tell the sound issues seemed to go away. My main Android phone is on a beta right now, so there is a slight chance that could be causing issues but BT is working with all my wireless headphones just fine.
My next step is to look into sound deadening for the doors to stop the door rattling so I have a better idea of where other audio issues are coming from.

Do yourself a favor and lift the dash speaker covers and snap a couple of pictures of the midrange and tweeters and post them. Unless you physically look yourself, you won't know for sure if those are the OEM speakers, but we can help you determine if that is the case. Maybe you have a bad capacitor on one of your dash speakers, or maybe even a blown driver.
Pioneer has a reputation for good, clean speaker level signal at moderate to medium-high volume levels and the OEM mids and tweeters in these cars don't normally present much of a load to high power head units in general. Bluetooth isn't really the highest quality sounding source for any head unit, and since that head unit has no CD player, try playing some decent quality wav. files from the USB port and let us know how that sounds.
