is this a route that you uploaded? or did you just punch in a destination and let the gps route you there?

if you uploaded it, I would suggest that you probably put the waypoint in the wrong spot.

if the 'lack of an accurate map' is a safety issue worthy of a lawsuit, then I guess I should be suing every car mfg that I've ever owned because until recently, I've never had a gps in the car. so I must have been driving around in unsafe pos' all this time.

what's the 'safety issue'? my gps made me do a U-turn? since you didn't follow the instructions, you don't even know if it would have eventually gotten you to your destination, just with an extra turn or two.

another bs lawsuit imo.....
