I have entered their addresses on TeleNav's website over 6 months ago, but it still can't find their addresses. And these are large neighborhoods with a couple of hundred houses!

To make it worse, TeleNav will not even let me enter their locations by clicking on "Record Location" from the Tools menu. It gives me an error message saying Location not found.
It's not Telenav's fault. They get the data from Navteq. Go to Navteq's web site. You can request corrections. Navteq will actually dispatch humans to check it out. May take a while, dependign where they are with their quarterly release.
