In Jan. 2009, I bought a NUVI 500. In June 2010 I bought the lifetime update. Until I bought the lifetime update all was well but at the first use of the lifetime update my GPS decided to turn itself on and off at will. I wrote to Garmin and they gave me a reset instruction...which I did. It worked well for a few weeks and now it is going on and off at will again. I contact Garmin again and they tell me I am out of warranty and for $99.00 I can get my Nuvi repaired.
You tell me. If the GPS was working fine before the lifetime update it seem rather ironic that I update and that the very day I do so the GPS stops being reliable. Hmmmm. Garmin will not budge from their position that my warranty has expired and they will do nothing to fix the situation. I don't think I am being unreasonable. Things like this don't just happen the moment you update.
Moral of the story: Try a different vendor when considering a GPS.
