Hello group

we've had our Kona Hybrid 10 months now. (22 plate ex-demo)

Don't often use the Satnav, but it does seem to have some strange habits. Here's just a couple.....

A recent journey that required us to travel the full length of M54 heading for the welsh borders. Satnav had clearly indicated this. Suddenly decided to take us off at J3, then along a meandering route of country lanes and back on at J4. Fortunately we had time on our hands so we followed it for amusement, thinking perhaps it had worked out a cross country route to our destination.

The route crisscrossed the M54 and we could see it was clear and running freely. Once back on M54 everything was fine and it took us to our destination.

Similar occurrence recently whilst negotiating our way out south west London to M25. Religiously following the route displayed, about 10 miles in when suddenly changes it mind and wanted to take us on another magical mystery tour almost back to the starting point of the journey.!!! Hadn't got time to spare this time. Switched it off and used my mobile phone.

Anybody else experienced anything like this this?
