Nav system got lost!!
Decided to drive to the UK this year from Switzerland. As per last time I entered the Ferry Port at Calais as the destination. Everything started fine, she was telling me the way to go.
I came off one junction too early, however I put that down to being my fault as there were two junctions quite close to eachother. However after about an hour the car tells me to take the next junction blah blah blah, and all of a sudden I am on the motorway (highway) seeing signs for Switzerland. There were no other junctions to have got confused over. I pulled over at a petrol station to confirm mt theory, and to my horror the car had turned me around and was taking me home!!!!
When I checked on the info menu the computer was giving me ETA basis my home!
Anyone had this before?? Needless to say I will be visiting me MB dealer when I get home (if I can find it).

Had a similar problem with my MCS nav unit a year or so ago not too far from my home. Dealer provided me a new disc and that solved the problem has not done it since.

One, you confronted me for no reason.
Two, don't talk about intelligence when you obviously cannot spell.
Three, don't try to dish it out without getting it right back. Try messing with someone who is going to be scared of a keyboard warrior such as yourself.
Don't be upset cause you cannot take a little joke as the one I made above.
You are one sensitive little whiner. Try growing a tougher skin, becoming more of a man, or just keeping your mouth shut if you don't like getting a rebuttle. And what is with the constant "parent" references? You are quick to make assumptions when you do not know the first thing about me, my family, or where I acquired my wealth from. Sometimes hardworking self made individuals are hated on by bitter, less successful beings such as yourself... that unfortunately is just how the world is.
