Magellan 1225 wrong location

mustang66 · 04-22-2010, 1:47 PM

Hi,
I have a Roadmate 1225 that I got from Costco.
I live an hour from Portland Oregon and the last couple times I went to Portland and had an address in the GPS, it showed me way off location, on the wrong street and such that I could not find the address using the GPS and I was completely lost.
It's usually off by a couple streets or by a half mile or so when I'm on the freeway, and it is way off at times.
I don't have this problem anywhere else and I have used this unit in other states without trouble.
Any ideas why or has anybody else had the same trouble?
Thanks!

I live in Glendale,AZ and use a magellan maestro 4370.
In one area of the city my location is wrong, tried several
different 4370's and they all do the same thing in this
location.
I've decided it is the map for my location as soon as
I'm in a different local it is correct. You might want to
find someone else with a magellan to try that location
