Trying to download updated North America maps through HERE (Honda vendor) and consistent failure of the program to work.

Honda of America says it's not their problem while HERE Maps is clueless.

WHY does a NEW 2025 have 2021 maps installed??

I've updated my maps twice via the USB stick route. I was lucky both times, each update downloaded without issue and updated in the car the first time. The initial USB download takes a while, over an hour each time, and the update in the car takes over half an hour.

Where in the process are you having a problem?

You may find my post re updating maps on my 2025 useful https://www.piloteers.org/threads/new-2025-pilot-map-update.188376/ My vehicle was shipped with 2021 maps as well.

It seemed that for the update from USB to work I needed to also be connected to WIFI to complete some form of validation (map info vs my VIN?).

I have since been using WAZE exclusively for map and traffic info. The Honda mapping implementation doesn't include speed limits and relies on their speed limit sign detection. And I find the native traffic updates are not much use locally.

When the trial expires I will continue the Honda Link remote services, but wouldn't purchase map updates
