great features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this Garmin to replace an older model that we loved, but after 5 years stopped working. Really like this new model - newer features are great and the unit is easy to use. Great bonus of having lifetime map updates which our older one did not have.

Excellent GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent audible, turn-by-turn directions. Tells you which lane to be in for upcoming turns and exits. Identifies landmarks like, "Turn left at the traffic light, after the Exxon station." Recalculates quickly if you miss a turn or decide to take a different route. I'm extremely happy with this item.

Great GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product. Along with giving the standard route will re-route you around traffic jams, which saved me hours on a recent trip. The only problem I've had with it is that sometimes programming destinations into it can be a bit clunky, but that's a minor inconvenience. I'm very pleased with it.

Much better than my old GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having this was really useful to navigate through unknown areas of New England. I have GPS built into my car, and this system has many more options. We found both points of interests and restaurants easily.

Works just OK
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Garmin is terrible at speech recognition. It is too complicated to set up, thanks Dweebs! Most of the time it gets you there but in the least efficient way possible. The best us for this device is for places that you have no idea how to get to and don't have a clue as to the most efficient path. The traffic option is marginal and you still get caught in bad traffic. Still it's the best of the bunch, what a travesty!

doesn't show traffic info n I'm stuck on the road
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have run through the traffic options several times but I didn't find the option for avoiding traffic unlike my older GPS unit which had "Traffic" checkbox item under Avoidances Why did you have to remove that option on a later model?

Posted .Thank you for your review on your Garmin nüvi 2597LMT. We are sorry to hear your device has experienced some difficulties and would like to take this opportunity to assist.
Your device has a similar feature but it is named differently. In order to for your device to create an alternative route based off of the traffic information it is receiving, your device settings would need to have the "optimize route" feature selected in the Traffic settings. Also, please keep in mind since the traffic information is not reported nor broadcasted by Garmin, Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy or timeliness of the traffic information. However if your device constantly does not receive traffic information, there may be an issue with the traffic receiver and Garmin would need to address that issue. If your device does not get traffic information, please use the Garmin FAQ link below to help address that issue.
