The reason would be, get a new stereo. No one uses cassettes anymore. But if you think you can fix it, here you go:

Things You'll Need
Spanner
Panel remover (available at car stores)
Screwdriver
Cotton swabs
Rubbing alcohol
Dishwashing liquid

Instructions
1
Use a spanner to remove the nuts and bolts that hold the trim panel (the panel that encases the cassette player) onto the dashboard of your car. Removing the dashboard trim; the cassette player should now be easily accessible.

2
Dampen a clean cotton swab with rubbing alcohol and gently wipe the tape heads, the silver square components, on your cassette deck. Repeat this until a cotton swab comes shows no residue.

3
Use the same method to clean the capstan and the guide posts. Repeat a number of times until the cotton swab comes back clean.

4
Fill a small bowl with tepid water, and add a drop of dishwashing liquid. Mix thoroughly. Dampen a cotton swab and use this to clean the pinch roller, the rubber circular component, in the same manner as the other parts; do not use rubbing alcohol on the pinch roller because it could cause the rubber to desintegrate.

5
Reattach the trim panel once you have finished cleaning your car cassette player.
