nüMaps Guarantee

 

Anybody have any difficulty updating your maps via the web without calling customer service? You are supposed to get a free update within 60 days if there is a newer mapset available.

A Garmin employee emailed me "we had a technical issue with the online registration process for the nüMaps Guarantee that was specific to the nüvi 855. We are in the process of resolving that issue."

Just wondering if the process is working fine for all non 855 registrants?

I did the update when I bought the unit. In fact, I did the firmware updates and the map update before I even put the unit in the Truck.

I got an AC adapter so that I could plug the cigarette lighter power cord into the wall in my office and played with it first before bothering to put it into the truck to use. I wanted to see what the MSN Direct stuff and you can't do that if the full power cord is not powered.

I had no problems doing all of the updates including the map update to the 2010 maps other than the time it took. But I just set it aside and used my notebook while the download/installs took place.
