Map Update Discontinuation for Certain Australian and New Zealand Garmin Automotive Devices
Interesting announcement as it does not distinguish between devices with Lifetime map updates, but none of the listed devices have the suffix LM ,so maybe Garmin is saying you cannot purchase a map up date for these devices ?
Map Update Discontinuation for Certain Australian and New Zealand Garmin Automotive Devices
Beginning July 1, 2023, Garmin map updates for the following Australian and New Zealand Garmin automotive navigation devices will be discontinued. Map updates will continue to be available until that time.
Spoiler: Devices Impacted by this Change will Include:
If you purchase a nüMaps subscription (sold separately or bundled together with certain GPS models), you will receive map updates when and as such updates are made available on the Garmin website during the useful life of 1 compatible Garmin product or as long as Garmin receives map data from a third party supplier, whichever is shorter. A product’s “useful life” means the period during which the product (a) has sufficient memory capacity and other required technical capabilities to utilize current map data and (b) is capable of operating as intended without major repairs. Unless otherwise stated, the updates you receive under the subscription will be updates to the same geographic area included with your Garmin product when originally purchased. Third party content providers may change. In some instances, your Garmin product might not have sufficient memory remaining for you to load an update to the map data, in which case you will need to either (a) select reduced map data coverage for your updates, or (b) purchase separately a microSD™/SD™ card (if and as applicable to your Garmin product) and load all or a portion of the map data coverage for your updates to the card and insert the card into the microSD/SD card slot contained in your Garmin product. If neither of the measures in (a) or (b) can be used to address your product’s lack of sufficient remaining memory, then Garmin may conclude that the “useful life” of your product has expired. Garmin may terminate your nüMaps subscription at any time if you violate any of the terms of this agreement or your subscription. Your nüMaps subscription may not be transferred to another Garmin product. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
