Waze Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Dave W (@Sir56ALot) reported@NationalHways @NRManc Then there are the errors; marking overnight closures as 24-hour closures is a particular annoyance. They’re clear to see because Waze routes around them but Google Maps shows green traffic both ways through the “closure”. The data’s useless if it’s not perfect.

Texas 🤘🏽 Boy (@FlyAir4) reportedIf you following me and I slow down I'm helping you, Waze said the cops coming up! Don't get mad at me!

Anoop Rao K | ಅನೂಪ್ ರಾವ್ (@anoopraok) reportedThis UI bug is causing lots of issues because I can't see the exit number and during driving I have to keep on seeing the map to exactly see the exit on maps and not the exit number on the top. @Waze_UAE @waze #waze

Alive out of Spite🇿🇦 (@nhla_x21) reportedI’m broken, the people I love are broken, we are all just a broken family rn💔 yoh waze wasiyenza joy brah💔💔💔

Glen O. (@buckeyegdo) reported@waze two issues. The mobile camera reporting is out of control. People are reporting Flock cameras when I feel the intent is to report the speed trap cameras. Secondly my icon inexplicably changed and despite changing it in settings, it is not changing on the map screen.
-
Liberalism is a Mental Disease (@kytnwv) reported@Brand0n @Tesla_AI Have they programmed it to slow down when cops have been seen on the side of the road? Basically, is Waze built in and is it automated?
-
Lightheart (@IciclePrism) reportedWe’re not going to help these people by bringing in a few hundred thousand of them into our country. There is probably close to a billion of these people. Instead, we need to send people over there to train and educate as many of them as we can in Waze. They could work to fix this problem. They are extremely primitive people. They are inappropriate to be selected to live here in America. ________

Nigel Poncewattle (@poncewattle) reported@oi8achevy @diaper @TeslaKing420 Wrong speed limit data can be fixed easily in Waze by submitting a map report. A local editor can fix it. Those fixes usually flow through to Google eventually. I've contacted the local editor group about getting this road fixed.

Jackson (@phillygeordie) reported@Don312A @ardeiusmaleus @catgirlprostate How is it “extreme levels of favoritism” when other maps show the land as Israel and Waze doesn’t? I don’t really see the problem?
-
Lunchlady (@LunchLady1997) reported@GretchenVoss64 Laposata looked at no evidence. Scordi Belo said it was both likely and unlikely that he was hit. Also couldn’t say for certain as positioning not known. AARCa testing did not even use the weight and size of Officer O’Keefe and frankly a little bit shady… all those deleted signal messages and “ billing “questions. . They did state though that Karen backing into John’s traverse did not cause that damage. You all love to parrot “ he was not hit by a car”. He easily could have been side swiped and that is not impossible. Google accidents by side swipe. I believe in the timeline, tech stream data, Officer O’Keefe phone data, including Waze. Most importantly, per MS Read herself… on video and in written words.. her tailight was broken at 5:08 am. Before CPD ever got the call and beofre MSSP got the call. Voss got it right.

Lawrence (@neuercechr) reported@Itsian1907 @severuben Waze is a slow, battery eating piece of ****
-
Tina D Smith (@SmithTD123) reported@MagaSgt @waze You should do it! I guess I should get the app now to show my support. I prefer a level-headed approach to issues rather than tantrums.
-
DJ (@congressdj) reported@phibetakitten Don’t get me wrong. It will reach the closed road and detour just fine. The problem was that so many roads were closed, it kept mapping to the closed roads and then doing detours. It was almost endless at one point. Using Waze I was able to navigate it in 1/10 the time
-
Troy Mclure (@JoshHynes1) reported@MagaSgt @waze Slow day at the trailer park champ?
-
Lauran™ (@lauranruddy) reported@NYSDOTHV Any update on when this will reopen? Also, are you going to fix the signs stating that it's closed? And maybe alert @waze that it's still closed? They routed me there the other day and wah wah, still closed. Thanks.
-
Tinker 🇺🇸 (@TinkerTYJ) reported@waze we have traveled 400 miles so far today (TN and VA) and had not one notification or evidence of nearby Waze users. Your app on both cell phones in our vehicle had same issues.
-
Monty Simmons (@simmo71084) reported@TheEXECUTlONER_ I do this at times when I suspect the police are just ahead (the bear box is growling or Waze shows a cop). I have seen this 1000s of times. It is as if the driver is afraid you are going to block him behind the car he is following. Just know that the driver of the truck following the vehicle in the slow lane is watching you. You can stay back for 30 minutes, and that driver will not pull into the fast lane. But the moment you get close enough to pass the vehicles in the slow lane, the truck (or whatever) will pull out into the fast lane. One way to prevent it is to know the truck driver is watching and, when you get close enough, speed up and hope the Driver is not paying attention so that you close the gap too fast. Be ready to hit your brakes just in case the driver is paying attention and pulls out anyway.

NMH (@nosmh_x) reportedHow my car crash happened At around 5:10 I was driving in Jackson on East Veterans Highway and I missed a left turn into Bowman Road, instead of doing the right thing I decided to make a “k turn” (the road wasn’t wide enough for a “u turn” since it was just 2 lanes, 1 each side) So I looked both ways, there wasn’t a car in the incoming lane for a while so I was safe there, there was a pickup truck behind me by quite a distance and against my better judgment I decided to make that “k turn” Anyways as I’m in middle of doing it and I’m in the OTHER lane I suddenly realize that the pick up drunk that was behind me is now trying to cut me off and was speeding at a much higher speed on the OTHER lane Before I knew what was going on he (I assume it was a man) went straight into me and I rolled over at least once and was then held upside down by my seatbelt Anyways I then hear a voice (I think from Waze) “were you in an accident?”, I said “yes”, “would you like to call emergency services?” And apparently they dialed 911 from my phone

han(s)* (@HansTheElder) reportedThanks to the nationwide T-Mobile outage that just happened, I am now forced to deliver my first child on the side of a highway in Rhode Island. Our Waze app disconnected halfway through the ride to the nearest hospital. Please pray for my wife and I on a safe delivery.
-
Just call me HC 🇨🇦 (@DogzBreakfest) reported@Garnet_2203 @googlemaps @waze I TRULY DON'T CARE!!!! We have far bigger problems than a stupid name. Get with the program & start posting about Canada's immigration problems. Drug problems. Homelessness. There is a plethora of massive issues here so a stupid map choice is not my MAIN CONCERN!
-
crazy people out there (@ron_doingstuff) reported@congressdj @Spencer10438140 I was trying to get waze working, so at least it would alert me. I was having issues with waze bluetooth talking over the tesla audio. I could not hear both at the same time. Grok said there was some browser version of tesla waze. Too busy to figure this out so far :)
-
NancyH (@NancyH_60) reported@gotrice2024 20 minutes is brutal—I’ve been stuck nearly that long on a slow freight crawl with no U-turn option. Best move is to use Maps/Waze for detours on known problem crossings and always treat malfunctioning gates as active: better late than risking it. What’s your usual route?
-
Definitely Not Allen Covert (@Covert61) reportedIf there is a huge traffic jam and WAZE shows me a different route that can save me time is Waze ignoring my issue and telling me to shut up or is it offering a temporary solution to my immediate problem?
-
Wayne Kennedy (@lilwaynekennedy) reportedThis is the exact thing I've been saying. These ******* clowns don't speak English, have no idea where they are going and will cross five lanes of traffic last minute to hit an exit because their Waze is slow. I've seen mother ******* backing up on DVP exits. @OPP_HSD
-
Dr Prakash Nayak (@SRIPRAKASH76) reportedWe had major problem following Waze directions traveling from London to Folkestone . Near or around Maidstone there was some road blocks. Waze kept sending us in circles repeatedly asking to take closed roads. It was getting dark. Stopped to download TomTom. @waze
-
Ana ♐️ (@anabenge1) reportedWhat is it with #Tesla’s navigation system? Why does it send me to the middle of nowhere most of the time? And why does one have to resort to Waze to get out of trouble? Elon do better please!

Randall (@Randall145695) reported@Asor1113 @DoctorTurtleboy @ALL_WEDO_ISWORK Ok, so now it happened outside before Karen even got back to Meadows? What a fascinating goal post shift. The problem with that is the dog would've had to attack and incapacitate him within about 20 seconds. Here's why: The high accuracy Waze data shows the SUV coming to its first and only complete stop in front of the house by the flagpole at 12:24:38 a.m. John's phone then recorded no movement for about 7 minutes as he sat in the car with Karen. At 12:31:56 a.m., a brief 20-second step event began as he exited the car. And at 12:32:16 a.m., his phone stopped moving until 6:04 when the 3 women found him and called 911.

Patrick Campbell (@Fanta_Box) reported@NotATeslaApp Waze is also a Google based company, is that correct? So how would integrating another Google map platform fix an already problematic Google map platform?
-
GUYER (@reyuglatig6pge) reported@LarryBrockJr Can anyone provide a map of the flock cameras in the Portland metro area? What about Waze? Is this another issue too tied to flock?
-
Tony Velasco (@Tesla_PNW) reported@PhasedGravField @mikepat711 It's a big revenue earner here, along with excessive speed on hwy 500, where FSD has no probable going 15 or more over in Standard, Hurry, or Mad Max. The cops absolutely camp almost every morning along hwy 500 in se eral hidden locations in an area where traffic regularly goes ten to fifteen over and just rack up car after car. I have Waze running, so know when they are setup in those hidden spots, and make sure to drop to chill at least a mile before I get to that area when they are there to give FSD time to slow down, since it is often a sluggard about slowing down to new speeds when you change profiles. It will do it, but not always quickly.
