I haven't had any problems, but I think it is a pain in the a**. I don't like the fact that you have to park to set your destination. The reason I use it is because I am in a hurry and want the shortest route. If I have to park and program it then I could have been half way there. You probably should take it to the dealer.
I haven't had any problems either. Take it to the dealer and have them check it out.
As for driving and using it, we have a couple members who have done the work to make that possible. I believe that socalted has done it and I can't remember off the top of my head who else, but I am pretty sure that there is at least one other member who has done that.

VSS Nav hack
I followed these additional instructions when installing my AV/Tuner . . . now I (or my passenger) can operate my navigation system while driving... make sure that you toggle off the hack after input is complete because it temp disconnects you from the satellites.
From Accuview's post on FreshAlloy:
Quote »It's easy. Take off the glove box, then find the 3 multiwire plugs that plug into the back of the DVD Rom. Remove the one farthest toward the passenger side. It will have a white/Green wire there. Cut that wire and put some wire on each end of the cut wire. Run thes 2 new wires to a switch. When you want to program while driving, just flip the switch, program away, then flip the switch back. While the switch is off, it will lose you position on the road, since the car will think you are no longer moving, but as soon as you turn it back on it will find you again right away.
I used the swiitch that was already in the glove box (coupe only I think) the switch that turns off the truunk switch. I mean, why would I ever want to turn off the trunk switch, I will never have my car valeted, and that is the only reason it is there. So mine still looks totally factory, and the switch is factory and hidden in the glove box.
