navigation map

how does one get the map to move with the car without having to reset the map location--i set the system to show the present location but when i drive past the edge of the shown map the map does not reset(as it does with bmw, range rover, gm products, etc) so i have to reenter the map with the car location centered.

Really odd, mine doesn't do this. What if you switch over to the CD or Radio display and go back to the map screen? What about turning the unit off and then back on? I wonder if you have bad firm ware?

it sounds like you're trying to pinpoint a location on the map, dont go through NAV and then use any of those options, just hit the MAP button at the top of your COMAND unit and it should adjust by itself
