Default NAV system route choices

Hello all-

Does anyone else notice that the NAV system occasionally (30% of the time, give or take) chooses a route that is "the long way?" I'm aware of the settings for quick vs short, etc and I don't think that's the problem. Twice last nite it backtracked me in a big loop; once with freeways and once in a residential neighborhood. People riding in the car were like "where are you going, dude?" and "why did you go that way?" I used the old "the computer knows where we're going- shut up" but it quickly became obvious that it didn't.

Anybody else??

Its happened to me many times. The NAV needs to be updated. Hope Lexus goes with a new company soon.

Yeah - I have this problem now and then. Pretty embarassing when you have a business big wig in the car with ya! Ouch! Latley my NAV seems all outta whack! It says that I am not on the freeway when I am?!?! I think it needs reprogramming or something...
