Question GPS/Navi issue - HELP

Is there a way that you have to update the GPS for the navi system?

I ask this because I had to travel to ishkabibble south Jersey last night and when I punched in the address it didn't even list the town. Needless to say I ended up "winging" it and I did get lost. When I was in the middle of my adventure the map didn't even show streets and wouldn't ZOOM in all the way.

Do I need to update the GPS or something???

I thought that maybe something was wrong with my system but as I got closer up the parkway - northbound it was normal. I was literally in no man's land and there was hardly any civilization to begin with but I figured it would still reflect the streets but it didn't.

Thanks

LOL

Where I was, was east jabib.....I very well could of gotten it!!

I honestly don't know how I would manage living that far down there. I'm so close to NYC, I couldn't imagine being anywhere else.

I don't know how I eventually found my way out of it! I somehow managed.

Yeah 99 GS400 - $400 - OUCH - I didn't realize it would be that costly.
Thanks!
