One week after purchasing vehicle, navigation system had errors. When attempting to find route, received two error messages. "can't unlock maps" and "detailed maps are required for routing. No detailed maps found on this unit. " took vehicle to the dealership (still under warranty) and they performed software upgrade and said it was now working. Went to leave dealership, started vehicle, and error messages returned. Dealership said they'd now have to order new radio as this was a common problem. Also told the dealership about message that appeared on dash that said "key has left vehicle" - even though I had the key fob on my person, was sitting in the driver's seat, and my engine was running. Also received an error message about the fuel cap and the low fuel icon stayed on for two days after filling with fuel. Readjusted the fuel cap twice and icon still remained and then disappeared after two days on it's own. Dealership said they'd look at it if it happens again. Possibly related to the computer system issue.

The illumination issues occur either after the vehicle has just been started or it has occured while driving.
