2020 Gladiator Rubicon Launch Edition
Wondering if any one else with a new 2020 Gladiator Rubicon Launch Edition also has a GPS unit / software program that is really poor. On day one in September when I took possession I noticed that the software was several years outdated as to roads. Then I noticed the speed limits it declares are wrong about half the time. The ability to change the view from near range (300 feet) to a more reasonable distance doesn't work for more than a few seconds - then returns to the 500 ft or 300 ft screen... That really sucks and isn't of much value when traveling away from cities. The software info implies the software is from 2009 most recent update... I believe it.
I was told by Dealers parts & service dept 2 weeks after I got this Gladiator that a new software program was out and I would get it as soon as they could get it for me... would let me know when it was available... 3 months later, I was then told there is no such software update, I would have to deal with Garmin to get it updated.... but it would be a separate claim not covered by any warranty.
I now have about 9,000Mi on it plus towing it over 2000mi. It's a pretty decent combo Jeep/pickup with very low gearing ... but the GPS system is really a negative.

The road right outside my neighborhood has the wrong speed limit, which is annoying. It used to be 30, and changed to 40 a few years ago. The Jeep says 25, which it's never been at all. I can't speak to the other things because I haven't used the factory nav in years, Carplay and Apple maps is far better and totally up to date at all times.
