For the first time in 28 years of JD Power’s car owner survey, there is a consecutive year-over-year decline in satisfaction, with most of the ire directed toward in-car infotainment.
My 2015 Tacoma has a great gps, but I cannot find a way to update the map, it is 7 years out of date.
My 2012 Mazda uses a SD card for the maps and last I looked it was over $100 for updates. I wouldn’t buy a car without carplay or android auto these days.
My aunt’s 2017 Mazda didn’t have my house in the GPS. It was built in 2011.
Mine has an SD card as well, still unable to find a way to update them. At this point i am willing to pay for it
Oh it’s simple. Just run a USB cable from your pc to the car’s tailpipe.
Wait until you see what it takes to do so! I had an OEM nav unit in one of my cars, and the map update is sold on a DVD (!) and costs something like $400. I’m going to go with… no. (And yes, I checked to see if an .iso was available on any pirate sources; it wasn’t.) I’ll just run Google Maps or an OpenStreetMap client on my phone, thanks.
I have yet to find a way to update/update the system, even paying for it.
