How to get the nav provider to update the map

Do you guys know any way we can give feedback to the map providers to get them to update the maps? Where I live it takes an eternity for the maps to update (for example when a new tunnel is built), and the maps are full of errors. Add to that the the fact that if you just follow the instructions you can literally end up driving in circles or through the wrong/closed roads all day long.

Is there any way to provide feedback about this so they fix it?

Yes, and I always update pretty quickly after a new release.

Notice that I live in Norway though, not the US.

Yep knew you were from Norway. I’m in the U.K.

I’ve just updated to Europe Live 2020-1

Sorry I can’t help with your question on contacting map providers.
