RAD 480i KNOWN ISSUES
On June 4, 2024, I sent a detailed letter to Cedar Electronics/Cobra Electronics regarding unresolved issues with my Cobra RAD 480i device, the Drive Smarter application, and the Windows PC software updater tool. Despite multiple attempts to resolve these issues over the past two years, Cedar Electronics has failed to provide any satisfactory solutions. The issues include incorrect model names, connectivity problems, missing updates, and severe bugs in their software. I have contacted Cedar Electronics' support team numerous times, as documented in the ticket numbers provided in my letter, but have only received dismissive and unhelpful responses.
Furthermore, Cedar Electronics/Cobra Electronics recently updated their firmware update page to falsely claim that the latest firmware update (R10) was released recently, while it was actually released in January 2023. This update did not address the known issues that have been present since the release of the product in 2020.
Moreover, Cedar Electronics/Cobra Electronics advertises on their website that their radar detectors receive "regular new updates to improve performance and accuracy" and that they provide a "continuously updated database" for red light/speed camera locations. These claims are false as there have been no regular updates, and the known bugs have not been resolved since the product's release.
As of June 18, 2024, Cedar Electronics/Cobra Electronics has not responded to my letter or taken any action to address these issues.
