Good equipment, but with partly serious card errors

TomTom Start 60 Europe navigation device (6 inches, Lifetime Maps, lane assistant, Tap & Go, Quick Find, maps of 45 European countries) (Electronics)

Customer Review

After the first start, first performed the first map update. The transfer of 500 MB initially on the PC and then on the Navi needed despite faster DSL connection a good four hours.The whole thing went smoothly, however, you need first times a TomTom account.

The first routing test in real life immediately showed serious card failure:
The Oberhausen city motorway A516 not familiar with it and insists that one would be on the B223, but parallel to this highway.
At an intersection in Oberhausen city area the unit would not let me turn left partout, although there is no problem and the intersection even has an extra lane for turning left.
I immediately reported via the TomTom's "Map Share" internet these mistakes and am curious if they are corrected quickly. For this I will in a few weeks to write something again.

The suction cup to attach to the windshield is such a thing in itself:
Already at the first ride, the Navi fell twice from within 20 minutes. This does not work really well.

Overall, the response time of the device while the navigation is very good, the instructions are accurate and the map display is outstanding.

May 2015 / Addendum: The above-mentioned card failure have not been resolved to this day.
