    Half a year ago, I decided to update the navigation in my 2019 Tacoma TRD Sport and bought a Micro SD from Amazon with the 2021 update. For a couple of months everything worked fine, but then it started to fail exactly as described in T-SB-0003-20. The radio constantly rebooted itself and the navigation did not work properly. I updated the software with TSB, but it did not help. Then I reinstalled the OEM Micro SD and everything working fine again, including the extra electronics I installed (Apple CarPlay, front parking camera, smart start). If you want to update navigation on your 2016-2020 Tacoma, DO NOT BUY this:

    Amazon.com: MokXim - Genuine Navigation Card 86271-0E073 | Compatible with Toyota Cars | Latest Update 2021 | US & Canada : Electronics

    Although most likely, this applies to all vehicles with Entune Audio.

    Same here...replacement micro SD worked for about 4 months when I started getting random reboots even during phone calls. I thought it was my Iphone 13 Pro Max but turned out (through process of elimination) to be a faulty microSD.

    Thanks for the heads up on the SD cards. I have the original map in my Nav from 2015. I don’t use the destination feature of the Nav every often, but when I do it gets me there. There is one new road near my house and the Nav says I am driving through a field but I can live with that.

    The fly-by-night vendor(s?) of these POS SD cards on Amazon keep printing official-looking Toyota SD cards that last a few months and then peter out. This seller appeared July 2021 after the previous vendor was removed. Not sure of a solution so I just restored my OEM SD card.

    Wish I would have saw this thread sooner. Nov/2022, I purchased an SD card 86271-0E074 Nav update for my 2018 TRD ORD. The card that was in use had never given any problems other than it was missing data in my area and for sure in places I planned to go.

    Did a trip in our new Casita this weekend very simple navigation really didn't even need fullblown nav but when making a couple trips setting your pre-trip and in trip procedures its good to just go through the motions. Main purpose of this trip was to functional check all the systems on the Casita.
    As far as the NAV it completely failed, used it for about 4 months but never input a destination just used it to verify my courses local. about 10 min down the road with my destination accepted and plotted out by Entune premium, the head unit started rebooting constantly. I even pulled over deleted the destination and re input. same reboot after I started rolling again.

    Of course I had my POS Samsung flip 4 as a backup, but even that is not a guarantee, at&t is not the best in rural areas sometimes.

    Same complete BS heading home. For just basic NAV the entune is not bad at all, don't have to rely on a phone has its own gps actually pretty good when working, beats carring a bunch of paper maps.

    Today, deleted all of my navigation saved data started fresh, even did the update TSB-0045-22.
    plotted a course and 5 min into the drive, head unit rebooted. Pulled the SD card and installed the original with old maps,plotted same course drove it completely to end, no rebooting.

    Maybe these Ebay cards are some rejected cards, corrupt that are stolen from the manufacture rather than trashed, then just sold like the one I purchased. I hate to spend the money but since Ill be traveling more with the trailer Ive got to have my Entune Nav a my primary, probably going to have to negotiate a price for a real Toyota card never again will I purchase this junk other than from a bona fide toyota reseller. I totally agree with the other posts "Buyer Beware" nothing from ebay, Amazon if its too good to be true it's probably junk

    Got my last one from www.gpsupdatestore.com about 8 months ago...it's been trouble free and cheaper than Toyota.

    Thanks for the info glad yours is still working. But I'm going to buy from Toyota, been trying to hunt down a OEM 86271-0E075 the one i purchased from ebay was 86271-0E074, looking at the files today the most current date is 4/21 and that card is suppose to be the latest can't be had to have been hacked some how to when purchased it in nov 2022 it should have been about 6 months from when the data was collected something doesn't look right.
