I think when you spend 30-40K for a vehicle, the compass should be correct. I have a NISSAN PATHFINDER (2004) which has a compass that actually is correct. I used it a lot. I am directionally challenged and thought I could depend on this technologically advanced vehicle. NOT. I am not happy about this. I know it is a small problem, but it is very annoying. I have not taken it to the dealership to see what they say, but when I do, I will repost. Should be interesting. I don't know how they can explain it. In the owner's manual, there is a procedure to recalibrate the compass. However, all of the 'buttons' listed to 'push' are not available. Strange, I'd say.
