Description of the problem | Toytota highlander limited 2015 gps consistantly offers wrong directions. Even on a. Straight away such as us rt 1 it will take me aroind the block only to be put back on the same road. Itnhas taken me off highway ramps and sent me through neighborhoods only to put me baxk onto the highway. I contacted toyota corporate who indicated theh were sorry but this is not covered indwr warranty as it is considered an assessory. The dealer said it may need map update whichnis 175 for the software load plus $ 75 service fee. My cheap $100 garmin provides free lifetime map updates and i have had to use it to ensure i reach my destination. Toyota has misrepresented the value of the useless gps. |
