Gm did it to me!
My 06 was supposed to get two free updates for the Nav System.
I phened GM today, guess what, the program ended Dec. 2008. Sorry there is nothing that anyone can do.
I phoned my dealer in Canal Winchester Ohio, they said sorry, I can see you one though.
Perhaps I now want to see them go into bankruptcy.
Not a happy camper here. I have driven GM all of my life. I do believe that there will be a change in my future. The current Vette is safe.
If you have not acted on getting your FREE NAV updates, get ready to spend $300.

Typical business tactics. I didn't like the program much anyway because two free updates had to be at year one and year two of the car's life. In 5 years the GPS is useless around here.

You really need to call Chevy Customer Assistance. GM just got a friend of mine a disc for her Caddy SRX which she didn't even buy new!! Just call and explain...I bet they help.

So I understand...you want GM to go bankrupt...The same GM that employs thousands of people and whose supply chains affect millions because you didn't get an upgrade for a nav unit?....
Buy a road atlas lol...I'm sure you missed out on a bunch of changes.
I guess you like drama.

You should visit the c6 for sale parts , these discs Pop up frequently , and they are not $ 300.00 .
There are other ways to get these discs as well if you do the homework

Try using a expired coupon at a store and see what happens.

'05 C6...I have gotten all the updated versions and haven't paid for any of them. As stated above...

Sorry, but if you buy a different car because of a simple mistake on your part, then you're not really a car guy. Find a NAV disc that you like, and then buy the car that it comes with...you'll be happier
I hear the new Crown Victoria is very nice....
