My dealer says he will no longer be carrying Lukas dashcams with GPS capabilities.
In my case, there has been gps sensitivity issues where despite a clear view of the sky, the device would either not hold a GPS signal or it would not typically acquire a satellite lock until 10+ minutes or more despite having a clear view of the sky. My replacement unit exhibited the problem and would not acquire a locked (A) signal despite driving in a "good" area for more than 15 minutes. After about 30+ minutes, it did finally acquire a satellite lock. My device is the 9500 and I feel other models are likely affected too as they probably carry the same GPS chip.
BTW. I have used GPS units for more than 15 years and have a very solid understanding of how GPS signals work.
