Default MyChevrolet App Navigation Function

I have tried several times to retrieve a destination in my nav system that was sent to my garaged car from the MyChevrolet iPhone app. When I start the car, the screen says that the destination is downloading but nothing happens after several minutes. Anyone experience the same problem? I can enter the destination manually in the car or have OnStar send it to my nav system, without any problems.

I have experienced a couple times in my '15. Most times, it works just fine. When that occurred, I went to the phone while sitting in the car and did it again and it seemed to take. Not sure why this occurs.

My 15 has done the same thing. Did a resend while in the car and it worked. (kind of makes it a bit worthless doesn't it?)

Works much better to send it once the car is running. I'll typically have it ready to go on the app and as soon as I start the car I'll just hit send and it pops up almost instantly. I do the same in our other Chevy and GMC as well.

It’s happened to me and I found if I go to previous destinations it was stored there. Don’t know why.

I called the support people for the app, and this is a known issue. I like the idea of doing that while the car is running. However, this bug should be fixed or deleted as a choice.
