Is there a way to update the factory GPS without taking the vehicle back to the dealer? We have a 2005 model with factory GPS. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ron Wicker.......

I assume you want to update the maps - the GPS is build in and not repalceable, unless it's broken. The maps and new firmware are distributed on a DVD and you can install the hew one yourself. The specifics depend on your model.
Hi Colin, The DVD's are rather pricey from the Dealers. Do you know where I can get an oem copy for about $200.?
Check your version and then check eBay to see if a newer one than yours is available. That said, it will still be a used 1-3 year old version with outdated info that someone took out of their vehicle.

many times.There are some helpful posts there on that.
You probably can find an older one on eBay. I bought mine from the dealer in Las Vegas - the 2007 maps were about $260.
