I just had the dealership install stock ford navigation in my mustang and the dealer told me i would see a message saying navigation fault, and to just say ok to the message and use it till they find out what the problem is, does anybody know what is wrong?

thanks for your help

Off subject but how much did you spend on the unit and install?

it cast me $1750.00 installed but the dealer wanted my shaker 500 ($250) core charge to get it back and i told him no way and got my radio back after a fight

Ouch $$$ ... any reason you chose the factory unit instead of a Pioneer or Kenwood?

Good job on keeping the Shaker (you can always ebay it to help finance the factory navi).

I was also wondering why you chose the factory navi over Pioneer/Kenwood, particularly the Kenwood DNX-7100, which is a pretty amazing unit at $1000 (ebay).

wait a minute.....the dealer was going to give you 250 for the shaker....WTF....are you friggin crazy.....those things are like paper weights!! you might get 150 on ebay.....hell some people would pay people to take them off their hands!

It sounds more like they were going to charge him $250 to get it back. That's a laugh!

ahh that could be....thats BS!!!

Yes, they tookmy factory radio and wanted to charge $250 to get it back, I know that there is better navigation systems out therebut the reason I got the factory one is so it keeps theMustangs originality and value up in the future,in my opinion every timeyoushop forclassicMustangs for salethey are more sought after and worth moreif they only original factory parts, after market parts onMustangs are not a good idea in the long run.

Interesting concept... I installed the Kenwood but am keeping the Shaker 500 (needed a paper weight on my desk LOL). All I hear about the factory nav systems is negative things and limited access. No movie playing either!! or direct ipod connection. My sister has factory nav from Ford and it freezes up all the time. They usually have to reinstall something with it each time that happens.

They really tried to charge you $250 for the Shaker? WTF??
