Wrong turn on NUVi350

 

"Turn left at" Once in a while I get this instruction, when I know it is going to be a right turn. In fact today only a right turn would have been possible, unless I were coming the other way. Jill had directed me this far, so my direction was known. This happens once in a while.

Does anyone have a clue about this?

My Nuvi-660 has done stuff

My Nuvi-660 has done stuff like that to me too. I don't know why it does that either. Any ideas about this, out there?

Me too even if the arrow was

Me too even if the arrow was point to the other direction.

260 also

It is a software problem and not the unit; mine does it at a particular intersection on my route, telling me to turn when there should be no announcement.

I noticed that even after the unit tells me to turn the highlighted route doesn't show a turn, so now when traveling in unfamiliar territory I glance at the highlighted route before following "Jill" instructions blindly.

It is most likely a error in the mapping data Garmin purchases from Navteq and not the unit itself. I beleive Tom Tom has a system where consumers can report mapping errors so they can be corrected. I do not know of that service being provided by Garmin.

Wrong Direction

My Nuvi 750 does it in Memphis TN (only place I'm aware of). These problems can be reported to Navteq via the Garmin web site. It could take a year or two to fix the problem.
