Question about navigation for X5 owners in Greater Toronto area

Do you have an issue with navigation and highway 407?
I checked and none of the avoid options are set.
Anyone seen this? How did you fix it?


Attached is the picture how 407 looks for us - always red and any time we need to use navigation the car will avoid it.


That's the map's version installed -

No luck, tried to change to FAST mode and still the car avoids 407 when this is, in fact, the fastest way to work - Google Maps and Waze always pick it first.
I guess it's time to pay my dealer a visit.

Maybe I'm missing something, but if you know its the fastest way to work...why are you using Navigation to get you there?

I just used this as an example of the problem - I don't need navigation to get to or from work, but let's say I want to go to a new place...

Ah, ok...makes sense. I find that happens a lot for me in Vancouver, where it says to go one way, but I KNOW a different way that's faster. Frustrating, but at the end of the day...it is a computer (usually no substitute for a human).

Talked to the dealership over the phone and scheduled a visit for October 15 - they said they need to run diagnostics and maybe to install new maps and new version of software. We'll see how it goes.

Wife also complains about Bluetooth - her iPhone 6 disconnects all the time.
Could be related to the same root cause.

^^ I've had my iPhone 5s disconnecting lately as well, happens maybe once a week. Haven't determined if its the car or the phone yet. I'm thinking its the latter, since a hard restart on the phone fixes the issue.
