Did you install a new stereo recently? I would check all the fuses and not just the stereo fuse. On such a new car, you shouldn't have wiring issues, should be a bad fuse. Check for the dome light fuse. Hows your dash board lights, do they work when you turn on your headlights?

Along with replacing the fuses you might want to check the whole wire if you can. They may have blown out because an aftermarket wire was crossed or has somehow grounded out, and if so, they'll probably blow again...
