the bastards FINALLY realized that this defect wasn't the customers fault, but their own for using a cheaply made flex cable in the first place. Every company should QUICKLY realize if there is an apparent defect in their product.. FIX IT!! FOR FREE!! lol

Dear Valued Customer:
Re: Upgraded Flex-Cable for Flip Screen in Navigation Models AVIC-N1 and AVIC-N2
We would like to inform you of a potential service issue with Pioneer's AVIC-N1 and AVIC-N2, inform you of our plans to resolve this service issue, and ask for your help in notifying consumers. If a consumer is not experiencing any issues currently, there is no need for the consumer to take immediate action because the one-time fix to resolve the service issue will be available if an AVIC-N1 and AVIC-N2 later experiences the service issue. Importantly, the service issue does not pose any health or safety risk.
Pioneer is aware of a potential issue with the flex-cable powering the flip screen to the AVIC-N1 and the AVIC-N2. After a number of power cycles, the cable has been observed to fail and cause the unit to malfunction (symptoms may include, but are not limited to, the flip-screen becoming blank) -- flex-cable failure can only be confirmed by Pioneer; standard service charges may apply for service issues not related to the flex-cable upgrade.
This issue may affect almost all AVIC-N1 units and AVIC-N2 units. Please contact Pioneer at the number listed below if you have a question about whether your AVIC-N1 or AVIC-N2 unit is affected by this issue, or if a specific malfunction affecting your AVCI-N1 or AVIC-N2 is related to this issue.
To address this issue, Pioneer is providing a one-time cable upgrade to consumers for their AVIC-N1 and AVIC-N2 at no charge to consumers for parts and labor. Pioneer will offer the free upgrade either upon request or automatically if an affected unit is serviced for another reason. Pioneer will exclusively perform the free cable upgrade for all units (i.e., no other service facility should perform the cable upgrade).
If you own an AVIC-N1 or AVIC-N2 and you are experiencing the service issue, please contact Pioneer Customer Service toll free at 800-421-1603 to arrange for the cable upgrade. Pioneer service representatives are available Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. (Eastern Time).
Customers who have paid for the cable upgrade are eligible for reimbursement of certain service costs if sufficient proof of service can be provided -- please contact Pioneer at the above-listed phone number for more information regarding reimbursement rules.
Customers can also review FAQs regarding this service issue. Click here to view the FAQs.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this service issue may cause you, and we thank you for your cooperation and continued support of Pioneer.
Sincerely,
Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc.

Nice, thanks for the reply. I'm more interested in the quality of the maps for the navigation rather than the XM or iPod functions. Sooo, anything noticeably new considering the graphics when using navigation? arrows, icons, roads etc.

this is what i found for your car:
VSS Wire - Dark Green - Passenger's Fender Blue 80 Pin Connector Pin 55 V6 ENG
it won't interfere with your bypass, and yes it does run back to your hideaway. -
Just wondering if anyone is using the N3 software on an N2? If so, is there anything I should expect if I were to go that route? Also, what differences do you notice between the N2 and the N3's GUI? Thanks
