A Gracenote® update must be performed before a Navigation Map Update. A Navigation Map Update is not required to complete the Gracenote® update. Use the process described in this bulletin to perform the update.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
