Battery Life

I have a Nuvi 350 which is about 5 years old. Still using the original battery.

The most common problem is that people overcharge their devices (not just GPS). If you leave it plugged in beyond it being recharged or you run it down until there is absolutely no charge left, you're shortening the battery's life.

I would think that the life expectancy of your units battery is much longer than one year. The 2555LMT is part of Garmins latest lineup and also comes with a one year warranty. That being said, I would call Garmin explaining the above and confident that they'll resolve the issue.

Good luck smile

I don't know if this is a battery issue or not, but my 2555lmt will not boot. It turns on with the "GARMIN" screen, does nothing for about a minute, and then flashes white and restarts.
My computer won't pick it up for USB either.
I've tried hard reset (holding the power button for 2-3 minutes) and factory reset (holding finger in lower right-hand corner) and nothing seems to be working, so I think it might be a hardware or power issue. I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated.

The 1st thing to do is be sure that it is fully charged. Where are you charging it? try your car charger or try off the computer.
Did the computer ever see it as a USB? because if not it could be in a MTP mode (there are topics on this).
