Review on ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ TomTom ONE XL-S 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator (Discontinued) - Top Features and Reviews by Loren Rindfleisch

Revainrating 3 out of 5

My Auto/Fast Friendly Service only fits

TomTom looks good but sometimes the satellite system doesn't work. However, it is better than my phone's GPS. The windshield of my car is not vertical. It leans back at a very odd angle. Check out the photos of the Honda Fit so you can see the problem I'm having. The odd angle also brings the underside of the windshield within arm's length of the driver. I'm currently trying to figure out a way to install it in my car because it's good enough that if it were just attached to the dash it could be kept. Friendly Service charges a 15% restocking fee, which is unusual for a Revain seller. So make sure you really need something before you buy from them. A logic loop in the programming made it impossible to contact the seller to ask for return permission. After pointing out this fact in my review, they asked me to remove it because they are a small company and just trying to move forward. I would rather have an adapter that fits my car than have to return one. They didn't seem to notice because they were so intimidated by my review that they forgot about everything else. They say they will make exceptions to the recovery policy. All you have to do is ask! If enough people ask, they may give up this pursuit on a regular basis. I found it tedious and boring to work with this company to find a way to install TomTom in my car. and a windshield that isn't vertical and far enough away that if I could mount it closer to the bottom of the windshield it would be hard to see. If that's not possible, I have to send it back.
