We have two entrances to our gated Community - one is secured for Residents only with a gate and arm requiring a special decal. The other entrance for visitors has a security guard who permits people to enter who are not Residents. GPS systems route people to the Residents only entrance(Pioneer Trail) and they cannot get into the Community.

Unfortunately the GPS on that address still shows a restaurant that is long gone. How do I change the GPS information to read Char-Hut of Royal Palm Beach. My adverting dollars are wasted showing my address if the wrong business shows up.

I asked them why my business was not listed since we have been here for 56 years and yet a local business that has been in existence for only 2 years is listed. They told me they get their information from Dunn and Bradstreet. That was about 1 year ago... and my business still isn't listed. I will try all of the suggestions in this article as well as yours, I hope they work. Mr Foster,

Garmin City Navigator uses NavTeq data, so when you report a missing or outdated business listing to Garmin, they typically check your report and then submit it to NavTeq using the form mentioned above.
