    Automakers have to be seriously skimping (or getting a "good" deal from whoever they gave the contract too) on these things... In this day an age, that little computer is seriously basic and has no excuse to be freezing up on you this quickly into ownership. This goes for more than the Hyundai.

    This is why I will shy away from shelling out for fancy technology packages in new cars. The way computers are evolving (and have for the last 30 years), I have no confidence that any built-in system will not be obsolete in five years, let alone non-functional. I know there are some good ones out there, but why roll the dice when you can buy a standalone GPS unit for a couple hundred dollars, sync phone via bluetooth to a more basic system, and/or just plug your smartphone into an auxiliary jack?

    I just use the navigon app on my iphone. Cost of the app, a mount and a lightning cable for power was about $70 total. Free map updates.

    If I knew I would always be driving in range of a good data signal, I would just use google maps which is free and has an excellent interface.
