Post Update Navigation Map version 2022

Just ordered a new SD card PT219-Gen08-22 to replace the old stock 2015 RC-350 F-Sport SD card.
Not really happy about that since the address is just a hit-and-miss: I got a house was built in 2018 in Costa Mesa, California but its address is not in the system: Lexus, it's a 4-years old address

Note. It would take more than 15 minutes to update so do not turn off the engine or stop the installation until you could see the home screen displayed. For me, after the installation, I lost the voice command: I had to disconnect the battery and reconnect to reboot.

For the '15, you have to buy a new micro card with the new maps and POI data. The car does not have the technology to download data like many newer models. Still, the card is a lot less expensive than the previous technology that had the data on a DVD. I've had various GPS systems in my cars for many years, and I find that getting a new disc or card every 4 or 5 years works for me.

I placed the order online and picked up from a local Lexus dealer via https://parts.lexuswestminster.com/
There was a discount and I had to pay $180.60 + Tax

There were many houses, roads, streets built every year in US. About more than 1,6 million houses built in 2022. Of course you can use mobile phone.
Anything is for free from Lexus? hmm...

Blame the mapping company, not Lexus for your missing address. It may even be some other entities mistake. My sister's address was incorrect in town records for a decade before they corrected it. At least you know where you live and don't actually NEED your actual address. Plus, no one can see your address and rob your home while out and about. Valets have been known to work with thieves. Pricing has come down so much on the map updates. Grateful for that as everything else is going up.
