Have you ever tried the Waze app for smart phones? They up date their maps about every week and they are a world wide org. Their users edit maps on their web site and after verification they are updated, usually within a few weeks. So why it would take these other companies years to incorporate changes is a mystery. Never mind the ridiculous charge they want for the update. And by the way Waze is a free app. The GPS as we know it is going by-by. If auto makers want to keep up, and have the built in GPS mean something to consumers, then they will need to offer better timely map updates with No charge for them!
