I have had 3 Mazdas with the Map App, the dealer wanted $400 for the chip to make the thing work with updates for three years. I refused and bought chips on Ebay for about $35, same OEM chip and got the same updates easily.

It’s all a racket, most of the options they want a subscription for you can do without. Of course will they make it a fee to lower your windows?
