Need a replacement navigation CD for an '06 Mariner

krunchyfrogg

I'm about to close in on a purchase of a used '06 Mercury Mariner hybrid, with the navigation system. Unfortunately, the car does not have the navigation CD.

Where can I get one of these?

How much should it cost me?

Unfortunately, the news is not good. Apparently the CD is part of a set, and it costs $200 to replace the set. I'm not sure about the Mariner hybrid, but the web site for the 2007 FEH navigation (with the 2005 CD (most current)) is:

Thanks. I kinda figured that.

What about ebay? I read about "Ford, Lincoln, Mercury Navteq Navigation discs," but how do I know they're the right ones?

I dunno. I'd be suspicious, especially since the MMH isn't listed on the GPS CDs issuer's web site, (above).

I only use one of the CDs,... for the Mid-Atlantic. I worry about it getting scratched/warped and having to purchase an entire set of (old old old) 12 CDs just for the one CD I need. :sick:

"(with the 2005 CD (most current))"

Am I the only one who is unhappy with 2007 FEH/MMH's being delivered to customers with 2005 map data disks?

Map data, like milk, expires. So, I am as happy with Ford upon coming home only to find I have 2 year old map disks, as I would if I came home from the supermarket and found I had just bought 2 year old milk.

And with the 2008 models going to DVD, I doubt Ford will ever bother to ever do a CD update.

Hey karls, wanna part with a North East and a disc that includes Arizona?
