Erroneous Time Zone Setting Affecting Clock Time Accuracy and Estimated Arrival Times – 2015 Subaru Legacy & Outback

NUMBER: 15-180-15
DATE: 03-31-15

APPLICABILITY:2015 Legacy and Outback Models with Fujitsu-Ten (F10) Navigation System
SUBJECT:Erroneous Time Zone Setting Affecting Clock Time Accuracy and Estimated Arrival Times

 

 

INTRODUCTION

This bulletin announces availability of revised map data to address customer concerns of an incorrect clock time being displayed (one hour difference ahead or behind) on the HVAC control unit and an incorrect estimated destination arrival time being displayed by the Navigation system.  This condition only occurs in certain geographical areas located near the crossover between time zones (e.g. the border between Eastern and Central time).  It is a result of erroneous time zone data contained in the map data on the Micro-SD card.  An enhanced Micro-SD card has been released to address this condition.  This part number change does not affect the actual maps on the Micro SD Card as they are the same as originally supplied with the vehicle.

 

COUNTERMEASURE IN PRODUCTION:

The new Micro-SD cards have been incorporated into production F10 Navigation units as specified in the table below starting with the listed VINs:

Micro-SD cards installed in some production vehicles and released as service parts already include the necessary change.  These cards can be identified by a white dot on the label as shown in the chart on page two.  These cards are OK to use for the condition described in this bulletin and if found in a vehicleโ€™s audio/ navigation head unit, do not require replacement.  Only those cards with p. n. 86283AL66A without a white dot on the label require replacement to correct this condition. For this repair, use either an 86283AL66A card with a white dot or an 86283AL66B card.  Please note that 86283AL66B card has no white dot.  The actual maps included on each of these cards are identical.
