After a year of working properly, my 2010 Equinox with GPS stopped recognizing my Bluetooth and would not pair with any phone. The pairing routine would abort as soon as it said to search on the phone for a new Bluetooth device. I had dealer upgrade the radio per PI0285. That fixed the Bluetooth problem, but now I have new problems. My GPS resets to Washington DC each time I turn off the ignition, exit the car and reenter the car again. This was a problem PI0285 was supposed to fix, and occurred intermittently before the upgrade. Now it happens every time. In addition, now when turning off the ignition temporarily, as when stopping for gas, upon restarting the car the GPS remembers that it had a route planned, but the route is lost. No routing instructions are given and the driver's information panel says No Route Planned. If the route is re-planned, the GPS asks if I want to add the new way-point. The lost route has to be cancelled and then re-planned. Could it be that the dealer installed an old version of the PI0285 software or could it be that there are new problems that have not been resolved yet? How can I find out if I have an old version of the upgrade? If there is no newer version, how do I notify GM of the problem so they can work on a fix? Are other fixes available?

Thanks in advance.

I've taken my 2010 Terrain in over the course of 2 years 4 or 5 times with the same complaints as others have posted. Each time they reprogram. The most recent visit (yesterday) they were "Gracious" enough to do the reprogramming for free as I'm 1400 miles out of the factory warranty. Even after the Service Manager handling the case because of the number of repeat visits for the same issue promised to resolve things, I get home and still have the same issues. :angryfire:

- I can change the clock hours/minutes but after 10 minutes of the key being removed from the ignition it reverts ... very annoying my cell phone & dash time are off by 3 minutes :help:

- Nav > Address Entry - I have to agree to the safety/GM C.Y.A. note EVERYTIME I enter GPS. Also, I have to clear Washington D.C. out of the state field EVERYTIME. :help:

I think its time to switch to a Ford!

I took my 2010 SLT2 Terrain in for an Oil change last week and while I was there I told them about the issues I was having with my Nav Unit. (ALWAYS defaults back to the XM preview chanel after the car has been off for a few mins. + the clock is always wrong during daylight savngs time).
They told me there was an update to correct this and that they applied it.

So I get home and the next morning I start the car and the XM preview channel is back to its default.

I took it to a different dealership today (as my main one is 30 min away) and they said they tried to apply the update that fixes this but it failed (and failed 4 - 5 times). They want to replace the Nav head unit becuase they cant get it to update.

Does this sound right? Or were they just not able to perform the update correctly?
