The first thing I would look for is a bad/loose/not tightened ground wire.

Did you install it yourself or have a shop install it? If a shop did it, take it back and have them fix it. If you (or a friend) installed it I would pull the radio out and check for any loose connections in the back.

A little more detail would help. The radio turns off, the camera turns off? Does this happen right after the back up camera comes on/goes off? Randomly, what?
