Default Register for Nav Map Updates?

What do you need to do to get Navigation map updates? Is there a form that you need to mail? I just took delivery and got an opened navigation DVD box - I'm afraid that something might have been missing. Thanks!

I'm not sure of your question really. Did you just get a box or did you get the disc already installed by the dealer? Or are you talking about your free updates? (if you qualify)

So Just in case, here is the site.... www.gmnavdisc.com or you can call them at 1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472)

I didn't know that. I had an '05 and there were no free updates for that. But then I thought a free update program was introduced in '06. Is that right? Was it discontinued?

I took delivery of my 2006 in Oct 05 and I just call the Nav Center and they sent me my first update. I just recieved it two weeks ago-no charge.

GM is also offering a one-time free update to anyone who purchases a certified used Vette after 4/06. Otherwise, the 2 free updates are only available to 2006 and 2007 m.y. buyers.

FYI the 2008 update disc is on backorder - you cannot get one right now.

Yup, my 1st year of ownership of my 07 was up last month so I just called and placed my order. He's right, the disc are on a 2 week backorder right now, but was able to place my order and get it into the system. Was told I should expect to recieve the disc in about 4 weeks.

Thanks for the info. I've been looking for a mailing on this but unless I tossed it not knowing what it was I never received one. I just called the number above and ordered the 2008 update which, as has been stated here, is on back order. Thanks again for the heads up.

Anyone know if the 08s will also be eligible for free updates in the future?

The 05 never has been so I doubt the 08 ever will.

Was the update disc free for your 07 or did you have to pay for it?
