Map data outdated

[JJ Earl]

I recently got a Model Y but it’s using outdated maps showing incorrect road closures & is missing roads. My older Model 3 shows the missing roads & correctly shows the previously closed roads as open. Is there anyway to update the maps??

It's weird because they say the data is from Google Maps on the screen now, but still using exit numbers that changed two years ago, while the Google Maps app has them correct. Google has a place to submit corrections, but they are already right in Google, so I think Tesla must be using an outdated version.

Go to the Settings - Software page and you'll see the navigation version under the software version. If it is out of date, you will need Wi-Fi connectivity to update it, and it will take quite a while to do so.

The car is only six months old, they changed the numbers two years ago. The version from six months ago should have the current exit numbers.

No, it says the map displayed on the screen is from Google Maps. The map data used by the navigation system is separate and is not from Google. (It is Tesla maps sourced at least partially from OSM and TomTom.)

Go into the Settings/Software page and compare the map data versions between your two vehicles. (You most likely need to get your Model Y on WiFi to get the latest map data.)

I find the Map data to be terrible on my Tesla model Y: speed limits are too often wrong, I have to pay to have very poor traffic data, roads are not up-to-date, road works are not indicated etc. I end up using my smartphone, with Waze as the navigation system. There is absolutely no advantage with Tesla's navigation system, apart from integrating supercharging points seamlessly whilst going from point A to point B.
A true weak point in Tesla's design concept.

i feel like my map was UpToDate initially. But after recent update it went backwards

It recently experienced this on my M3LR. Outdated roads and closures. Has anyone else tried to setup navigation on google maps on phone first then send it over to tesla app to see if it corrects the route?

Reason #5 why I think robotaxis are farther away than they appear. I navigated to a park and if it followed the nav instead of the signs, I would been dropped off on someone's backyard half a mile away.
