You can recalibrate or move. Have you contacted the dealer?

I have a 2007 that came with version 3.0. I had no problems. Now that I'm using 4.0, the system has moved my house (while using the home feature) about 100 yards further down the street and on to the opposite side of the street. I knew something was wrong yesterday when I pulled into my development and the system said your destination is on the left when it actually is on the right. Now I have to drive by my house or cancel the guidance system when I pull into the driveway to get it to say you have reached your final destination. My house number is 214 the system takes me to location of 221. I really don't use it much so I'm not sure if it started with 4.0. Any suggestions. Thanks

It sounds like they made an error in the database for the new version. All versions have some errors. Likely when they updated the database to fix errors about which you were unaware, they introduced some new ones. The address for your house is a prime example.
Why not simply drive home, park in your driveway, and set that location as 'home'. Regardless of address, the latitude/longitude will be your drive and the system will navigate you to that spot.

You might want to try re-calibrating your vehicle position - can't hurt.

Did you enter 'home' by address or by marking the current location?

With your car parked in your driveway, reprogram the home key. It should then allow you to return to your home and tell you that you have arrived at your destination.
Frankly, it is a bad idea to have your exact house location programmed in to your GPS. If your car were ever stolen they now have your address and directions on how to get there to steal the rest of your stuff since they know that you aren't home.
If you don't want to re-enter You can edit the home position using the instructions below:

I've tried that a couple of times. Still no good. If my neighbors address don't work then I'll hit emergency, get the coordiates and enter it that way.
