Nissan X-Trail 2015: GPS not up to date

Asked by Dennis Daly

My 2015 Nissan X-Trail Ti was bought new and is under warranty. The in-built GPS is missing roads such as the Geelong bypass and numerous times has led me to convoluted dead-ends. Nissan Australia says this will be fixed in the next release and will cost $330. The dealer's advice was the GPS is only accurate for metro areas, not regional areas. When I bought the car, the dealer said the GPS was up-to-date and good for travel around Australia. It is not. It is defective so I believe it should be covered under warranty.

You are not alone, as the mapping in every factory installed GPS is going to be a little outdated — I get emails every week from unhappy owners. The problem is the delay in getting the Australian mapping coded, sent to HQ and then uploaded on to hard drives. The quickest and easiest solution is to use Google maps on your phone. Nissan has previously said it gets the mapping updated as soon as possible.
