“A very dangerous condition exists in the navigation systems, apparently in all models of 2012 and 2013 toyotas equipped with factory installed navigation systems. The problem is that the system fails to produce a voice prompt for turns perhaps as much as 50% of the time. Failure of the voice prompt means that you must continually look down at the screen in order to know where and when to turn. I'm certain that this has caused many, many accidents and fatalities as well. …”
