Customer Review: Should be better desinged and less expensive
Summary: 2 Stars
Garmin had to go out of their way to engineer the poor quality connector on the speaker/power cord. It is an over-all dumb design perdicated out of the Garmin's apparent desire to make it a little less epsensive to build the main unit to water-resistant specifications.
In less than a year, the poorly designed and manufactured connector on the main-unit end of the connector cable began to de-laminate and cause random unit resets when my car was jarred by pot holes or road irregularities.
I also own an older Street Pilot III which uses a much more robust round connector with pins that stick into holes in the cable. It probably cost Garmin about fifty cents or a dollar a unit more for the old style connector. Given Garmin's reputation for quality products, I'm really surprised they changed the engineering to the lousy leaf spring connector they're using now.
Garmin really should have a voluntary recall and replace these junky connectors to promote customer satisfaction instead of making us shell out between $30 and $40.
