There are two lines that supply +12 to a radio; one is active when the radio is turned on, the other is active all the time and this is the line that keeps the clock running and your selected stations from being lost when the key gets turned off.
If this is an after-market radio, the fuse is likely to be under the dashboard, in series with the line that is used for primary power when the radio is in use and is not making it all the way to the radio.
If you have recently changed the battery or lost power for any reason your radio may require an anti theft code, check your manual to see if this even applies to your vehicle. You may be able to find code behind the glove box in some cases. Or look up your vehicle online to see if any codes are posted. If the clock is working you have power.

If it is a detachable face,make sure the face is on good. If not and you checked the fuses,then you need to check the wireing to the radio. FYI these late model cars have fuses under the hood as well as inside the car.
You may have a short in the dash, i would have it checked by a mechanic, if it is a short it could cause a fire, so you should have it checked ASAP........
trace the wire back to the fuse box with a lighted 12V tester and if the fuse appears to be good, check the hot side of the fuse and go from their. You might have to find another hot point (key activated) to wire the stereo into with an inline fuse.
