Traffic Nav Not working on my BRZ - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Indestruct · 06-09-2012, 03:44 AM

I thought our BRZ's came with a 4 month trial for free traffic Nav? My XM works fine and my traffic worked fine for the first day... Now I can't view the traffic and yes the traffic receiver is on... Any advice? I'm gonna try to register with the XM website, I can't seem to figure it out.

Any ideas? :/

I'm surprised more people don't have this problem... This is the worst Nav ever, when if you make a call the Nav Voice doesn't come back on. The satellites are impossible to acquire sometimes, and the unit is so slow when typing in stuff. Once I get more money I'm gonna replace this crap.

If its really that bad everyone should report it and take it in for service. That may prompt Subaru to replace it via recall. If it doesn't do the basics it's advertised to do, its defective.

I agree. Speak up! If they know the unit is crap they should take steps to rectify the problem. If not for us, then at least for the next model year.

In addition to its problem, the subie nav stock can't compare to any after market nav .....; I would save and get the Nav from Alpine, Pioneer, Sony .... etc
