Garmin refused to replace/exchange it because the serial number was not in their database. 鶹 customer service was awful and kept on pushing me back to Garmin copy -pasting their support webpage despite the fact I already told them my claim was denied.

2.0 out of 5 stars Na tem bateria interna!
Verified PurchaseNão tem bateria. Ou essa modelo só funciona ligado em uma tomada.?! .
- Holly OgleReviewed in the United States on July 6, 2025
5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the purchase!
Verified PurchaseGreat functionality and battery life it also will beep when you go into a different speed zone. The route accuracy has been correct every time I have used it while traveling from Tennessee to Florida. The screen size is good and does not block my vision of the road in any way. It is a good value for your money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Put it in the right location
Verified PurchaseInitially I just left it lay on my console not wanting it mounted on the windshield. However it kept losing signal. So I repositioned it to the windshield up by the rear view mirror using the suction cup attachment.
Works like a charm now. Updates are straight forward. Put the program on my computer and even this 60 plus year old can do it!

2.0 out of 5 stars GPS caro e o suporte da ventura nao funciona. Porém, o aparelho é bom.
Verified PurchaseA ventosa suporte do GPS, não segura nas partes do veiculo (plásticos), mesmo após pressionar a presilha. Enfim, só mesmo o aparelho que funciona. Tive que comprar outro suporte. Mas o GPS Garmin, o aparelho é bom, só o suporte do GPS é que não funciona, não segura / Fixa o GPS.

4.0 out of 5 stars Similar to the Garmin Nuvi
Verified PurchaseI had a Garmin Nuvi for many years and finally had to replace it. This unit is similar but not identical in terms of format. I think the product designers simply fiddle with what already works fine and the result is mixed at best. This unit has done away with the annoying "recalculating" repeated announcement whenever the driver deviated from the directions (to stop for gas, etc.) A plus there. Mostly the directions were correct but it randomly confused "left" and "right" when arriving at a destination. Huh? This unit has been refurbished so, fingers crossed. I appreciate the designers staying with the familiar format (mostly) and decent graphics that can be understood at a glance.
