As you all probably know, the nav system on the FEH is prone to locking up at random inopportune times. Mine did again this weekend, and as I had some time, and was near a dealer, I stopped by to show it to someone. Of course the service department was closed, but I drug a sales person out to show them, and then got their card so I could tell the service people who looked at it.

So yesterday I had my truck in for it's oil change, and so they could look at the gps. I have the truck back, and they have ordered me a new nav system. They said that in diagnosing the system, a module indicated a failure. Unfortunately I have no more or better details than that.

The other interesting thing is that they called me today, and told me the Nav unit was backordered. Does that mean they are having to replace a lot of them? Or enought to deplete stock?

I wrote down all the version information from my current unit, and will be interested to compare it to the new one. I'll post them if they are different.

Since I'm probably not the only one who has seen this, I figured I would mention it.
