Is there a way to update the factory GPS without taking the vehicle back to
the dealer? We have a 2005 model with factory GPS. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Check your version and then check eBay to see if a newer one than yours is available. That said, it will still be a used 1-3 year old version with outdated info that someone took out of their vehicle. >> Stay informed about: GPS Update

I just wanted to know if a less expensive updated CD was available from another source other than a dealer.
