a few month's ago the battery in my Garmin GPS started to not hold a charge anymore for more than 15 minutes.

I emailed Garmin and they said send it in ground mail, insured, etc. I did... and received it back today.. 12 days total ground to Olathe, KS. and home to Spokane, WA.

It looks like they gave me a new or refurbished unit of the same model.. which is fine with me... as mine was barely over a year old, and a discontinued model.

the best part was that it didn't cost me anything other than shipping of $9.10.

I was expecting to receive an email with the bill for repairs.. but no, nada, zilch!

I am very happy that they honored their warranty and took care of me.. as with Polk Audio, I will be a Garmin user for life.

I'm having the same issue, along with some stutter at times. After reading this, I'll try sending it in, Thanks.
