Just received new Nav Disks from Chrysler
Got them under warranty and they are dated 2004 as I feared. Dealer said these are the latest as they came directly from Chrysler, brand new. Chrysler Customer Service cannot give out info or part numbers on any nav update.
That being said, I tried it and it worked quite well, although a perspective Garmin/TomTom map would indeed be preferable.

The street my house is on isn't even on my Nav map. It was built in 2004

Re: Just received new Nav Disks from Chrysler
I got my disks last week too and I was ticked that they were from 2004 and my roadster is a 2005 so hopefully the directions will be ok and just the smaller and newer streets will be left out and really, who goes to them anyway. But I suspect that many of the smaller and less well known "points of interest" that are on there will be gone by now. Haven't used the nav system yet because basically I know where I'm going.
Nav Unit Not All That Great
Tried my new disks out and the Nav unit does work as advertised, except for missing local expressways, some new exits and streets added in the last 3 years. On my drive home tonight (38 miles) I was "off road" for half the trip according to the unit.
Don't know if I'd trust it now for long trips. Guess I'll go for a TomTom and keep this one as a souvenir. Glad I didn't pay extra for it.
