One day it sent us 15 miles to get to a place we later figured out was only 2 miles away- through The Villages.

Today we were on 466A and wanted to go to the Village of McClure- we had no idea how to get there. It took us to 301, then Warm Springs, then to McClure. We noticed at the round-about that we could have gone down Marsh Bend Trail- through DeLuna instead of around. It has NEVER taken us through The Villages to get to our destination. My wife thinks the Apps are avoiding gates because not everyone has gate cards.

Any way- has anyone heard of this? Is there a setting to fix this?

Thanks!
That’s strange . I have a 2018’with car play and use the map that came on my apple phone and I can type it any Rec center or business in villages and it takes me right to it . I suspect maybe it’s a setting . My dealer is pretty nice and will help me with something like a setting issue when I ask the service writer . Not sure what’s wrong , but yiu should have that capability so I would call the local dealer and ask for service as a starting point. I know it’s frustrating . Good luck
