Lexus RX450h navigation problems

I used the voice command to 'Go Home' in my Lexus RX 450h and 20 minutes later got a message to say there were traffic issues on the selected route and would I like to change route. I selected 'NO' and pressed the 'Enter' button but no response. I tried the Menu switch but no response from that either. I cannot access any of the facilities covered in the menu. Have you heard of this problem before?

Not sure that your satnav fits the same category, but there has been a widespread problem with the latest Toyota/Lexus satnav traffic jam avoidance, of which I have direct experience. All 'current' Toyota navigation systems use the same software. There is a manufacturer's advisory that if customers complain about nonsense directions in UK, France or Spain and their navigation has Software Version: 2.8.4al it requires upgrading free of charge, takes about one hour.

My sat nav packed up so I've replaced it with an app on my phone. It's held on the dashboard in a phone holder. I've heard that it's unlawful to use a phone in this way. Is that correct?
