GPS Problem - Laguna Hills, CA

Hi, I've been unable to correct a GPS error and found these forums.

The address 23461 S POINTE DR is located on a cul-de-sac at the end of S POINTE DR. However, WAZE shows the address to be on AVE DE LA CARLOTA. While AVE DE LA CARLOTA runs adjacent to the property, there is NO ACCESS to the property from AVE DE CARLOTA.

Would it be possible to get this corrected?

Thanks!

House numbers were turned off again... See viewtopic.php?f=10&t=35194 & viewtopic.php?f=10&t=35850

The good news is that the new system was recently enabled in the beta version of the editor for testing - there is still a substantial amount of work to be done on the system.

The issue isn't whether Bing and/or Google provide correct directions, it is where the address pin is located - if the pin is closer to the wrong road, that is where Waze will route you.

I'm assuming you made your submissions to the two sites found at the bottom of this page: http://www.gps.gov/support/user/mapfix/ Those changes take time to 1) be reviewed by those companies 2) For those companies to update their database and 3) Those companies to publish their database (it is NOT real time, nor is it anywhere near the Waze update cycle). Waze has no control over when or if changes submitted are made.
