XM Nav Traffic and Weather Out for Acuras

My car reports that it is receiving the Nav Traffic and Weather signal yet it shows no data and no update time when I access it. Called XM and their second tier support said its a known issue with Acuras after an update they performed last week. Noticed the folks in the TL forum are having the same issues. Hope they get it fixed soon.

Forgot to mention that they were hoping for a fix today, but knowing that company I would not hold my breath.

Called XM for an update and it looks like three to five days before the services are restored to Acura owners. Prorated refunds will also be given.

Nintendo payed $80 Million in settlements for people who received blisters from the N64 joystick.

The traffic has been working off and on with my navi but mostly off. I called them and they just tried to refresh radio but no help.

Well I guess I wouldn't know if my XM went out because I canceled it. But my navi is fine.
When did this start?

Evidently it happened late last week when SiriusXM performed some sort of upgrade. The outage affects Acuras, Mercedes and some Fords. My weather is totally out except for the current conditions. Traffic might work for a while and then stop.

Forgot to mention it does not affect your Navigation System just XM's Nav Traffic and Weather subscription services.

The monthly cost for Nav Traffic and Weather is $7.00 per month but I think you get a small discount when you bundle it with your radio service.

Ohhh, that's what happened. I thought they were beginning to shut things off for me since I'm nearing the end of my trial. Kinda pissed cuz I use that traffic info every day. Maybe it can be used as some leverage on a good navtraf/weather deal

Yea, but if 1,000,000 people got settlement money, after lawyer fees, you're looking at like 40 bucks, if that.

Well the idiots just need to fix it - a week is long enough. My Nav Traffic worked for a few minutes this morning then it died. Nav Weather is still dead.
