Traffic pop up on Garmin 3597

 

I have noticed that traffic pop up on Garmin 3597 is not very consistent. Some times it pops up and many times it does not. Does anyone has issue? I will appreciate your feed back.

How do you leave the pop up display on? Is there a setting?

Please touch three bars in bottom right side of the screen and then touch on Traffic icon.

If you don't see Traffic icon there then go to SETTINGS, Select MAP TOOLS and select Traffic.

I also sent an email to garmin tonight. We'll see if they respond to our emails. Probably not.

Thanks for sending them email. I already got their useless response back to update software. I replied back that I already have latest software 3.8. Let us see what they say next.

Yup that's what I received

Yup that's what I received too. A junk copy and paste email ask me to update to new software blah blah blah.

Finally, got a ticket opened

Finally, got a ticket opened with Garmin to troubleshoot the issue. I had send them screenshots with arrows and bubbles to explain the problem otherwise they were not understanding the issue.

I only see it on a planned route

I have not seen the popup for traffic ahead on the road unless I have programmed a destination. I will get a warning about the length of the delay and how far away it is. It often is very far away and disappears long before I get near that spot.

If it helps your case, want to let you know that the traffic pop-ups work my 2595. They work while navigating a route but also if you're just driving along and approaching a problem up ahead. I only recently discovered the latter and was quite surprised by it. I was on my way to work and had the unit on after the recent FW upgrade and got a pop-up warning there was stop-an-go traffic and delays up ahead. It warned me about a mile ahead of time and showed the red line along the route as I approached the tie-up.

looks like you have manually triggered it, otherwise it should disappear after there no traffic on your route.

I think you are referring to HD traffic. Again, traffic is covered in bigger cities only. We were talking about new traffic pop up feature in 3597. Some times it works and some times it does not.
