I just finished burning a dozen new disks for mine. I use Roxio Music Disk Creator. Works fine. I get the folders and the titles.

You should be able to get a lot more than 40 songs on an MP3 disc. I have 135. Go here:

I used Nero to burn mine and it worked real nice after I figured out the song title formatting(Doesn't like special characters in the dash unit). Here is a dumb question though: Are you putting the disk into the CD player or the DVD nav Disk slot? If you are doing it correctly, then take it to the dealer. Also, try your MP3 disk in one of the dealer's cars.
