I might be the only person in the world who regularly updates the Satnav in my Stelvio, but the latest update wouldn't work giving me file read errors. So I put the files into a much better brand of SD card and it went through with no issues! I just wonder if other people have had update failures due to poor quality USB/SD cards? I reverted to a Sandisk card and it worked straightaway after 2 update failures!!

You might be, I stopped updating when the warranty period / subs ran out.. I didn't use it that often anyway, I liked the presentation of it but I maybe had it setup wrong as it didn't update in real time with traffic issues like google maps on the phone does.. Always used a Sandisk USB drive with no issues at all.

Nope ..I was also into updating the Nav.. .. If a new image was available I always updated it and found it pretty good TBH.

The satnav in my wife's old Merc EQC was shockingly bad in comparison., as it was in her Audi a6.. both were crap at re-routing and avoiding traffic even though both updated regularly..

Been trying to update mine before my 3 years from new runs out, website been down for ages.
I did manage to get on once, randomly, but it said no maps available even though I know for a fact I'm not on anywhere near the latest.

Tried calling customer services, held for about 45mins then gave up.

Local dealer unable to help either. Been an Alfa customer since 2008, put up with the customer service pitfalls for many years, but it only seems to get worse. It shouldn't be this difficult. Really basic stuff.

The last map I loaded was in November last year MAP50436, interestingly the licence file is MY2020-lic.dct It still has the average speed cameras just outside of Leicester on the M69. I have a MY2023 car and would like to be able to upload a new map. I have noticed there's an option to update your navigation on the Alfa Connect website but when you click on it, it still goes to the broken Mopar site at the moment?

I also use the sat nav in my Stelvio and I think it works very well besides it doesn´t have information about traffic jams and so on. I get the message on the Mopar Map Care site too that there are no updates available. That is unfortunate since I bought three more years of updates when the first years of free updates expired. I have reached out to the customer service in Sweden and I am now waiting for their response.

Yes, I get the same as you - No updates available. The updates should be quarterly and the last one was issued early March. It is now 4 months later and still nothing - an absolutely disgraceful service!
For my 2019 Giulia, on Mopar I get:
Map available

So mine's reasonably recent.

My version does inform about traffic jams and offers faster alternative routes as they happen in very good real time.
Mine too. I believe the traffic information comes via a data stream over DAB. Still doens't seem to be as up-to-date as Waze though.
