Destination feature not working

The destination feature on my 2011 has stopped working. I input all the information as to where I want to go and then press the icon to calculate the route and a window pops up saying that the calculation of the route failed. It does not say why it failed, just that it failed. I have tried several different destinations all with the same result. Any ideas????

Try a master reset - I've never done it myself.

Here's one link. Good luck.

You may need a system update on your GPS.

The Nav in my Edge does this occasionally. It even displays the route momentarily before the map vanishes and I get the "route failed" message. It seems to happen more often when my "home" is the destination, but I can't say that for sure. Like you, a few miles down the road if I try it again it'll start working correctly.

I like GPS but never trust it, every couple of years I go to the local truck stop and buy an Atlas to keep with me.
