2015 Touring with Nav - Any Replacement Options?

Hopefully you don't/won't have to rely on it in a heavy traffic situation. Example: Last weekend we traveled to Ft. Worth. We used the Z's Nav and I also had Google Nav on my phone. Google alerted us to an accident with a massive delay and routed us around it. The Z Nav just kept trying to put us back on the original route. That one incident saved us roughly 45 minutes.

Coming home Google diverted us around another accident (not as major) that the Z Nav missed as well.

The Bluetooth and USB functionality I'm talking about can be seen in the system Nissan is putting in the 2015 Rogue. You can connect via Bluetooth or USB cable to an Android phone and manage your music library totally from the car system - search, list, playlists, etc.

The Z's system is rudimentary at best and borderline dangerously distracting for how much time you have to fiddle to do anything.
