Noticed my 2018 Model 3 downloaded 6.5 gig of data last night. Pulled up the software screen and found the navigation data was updated.

Anyone know the significance of this huge update?

To me it’s new to be told it would happen. In the past map updates just happened - when on WiFi and whatever magic on the Tesla side to select the car.

Maps in our area in Central Texas are at least 3 years out of date, lol. We had a popeye's built 3 years ago and a housing development was built before then and neither one are on the latest map

For some reason, my download has been stuck near 100% for 4 days. Double scroll wheel reset doesn't help. Connecting to a different Wi-Fi doesn't help. Thoughts?

My firmware update has done the same immediately following the last firmware install. I scheduled a service appt with the details - hoping they can fix it remotely once they look at the appt request.

The update is stuck, Jedanielee... you'll need to make an appointment via the app. Let them know in the notes that you believe the update is stuck. Sometimes the customer service reps can fix it remotely which is usually waaay faster than getting an actual appointment or a mobile tech to come out.

Generally speaking, Nav data for all vehicles will be about 3 years behind the times. That is roughly how long it takes the data companies to add new infrastructure and road changes.

I noticed something very interesting with the maps a couple of weeks ago. Like I said earlier, there is a new on ramp near work that isn't on the map. However, when using the navigation, it routes you through the new on ramp! So it seems like the nav data and the map data are not the same thing and nav doesn't rely on the map.

I had online chat fix a stuck update earlier this year.

Yeah, I did create a service appointment - interesting that the messaging system has moved in-app now! Moments after scheduling, I was notified that 2020.48.10 update was available. I went ahead and installed the update and there the map download issue disappeared. A few days later, I was contacted by Tesla Virtual Service Diagnostic, who confirmed my map update successfully completed and canceled my service appointment.
