Incorrect "Continue Straight" Tile

Bug Reports

When navigating from Willsonville (ish), OR to Winlock, WA via I-205 a tile reading “Continue Straight for XX miles” was displayed with a subhead of that included “on I-205” (or words to that effect) long after we had merged back onto I-5 north of Vancouver, WA. That tile remained on the display, showing the mileage to our exit at Winlock (saying “continue straight”) until less than 2 miles out when I changed the display to destination mode so that I could see if we were supposed to “continue straight” or if this was a bigger bug. In destination mode I could see that the distance displayed was actually to the exit. IIRC navigation resumed with a “Take Exit NNN” tile sometime after I switched to destination mode, but it was too close for comfort.

I submitted a bug via the app on 19 July around 16:30 PDT (GMT-8:00) about 50 or so miles out as it was still displaying continue on I-205 while were actually on I-5.

Where does this happen?

      Hopefully this will show the problem:

      On our trip, the “Continue Straight” (not sure that is the exact wording) black direction tile had a sub-head that mentioned I-205 while we were on 205 east of Portland. After crossing the Columbia River north of Vancouver, WA I-205 merges back into I-5. I think at that point merging into I-5 is the only thing you can do and it might happen without any “explicit maneuvering” so maybe there is no navigation event to trigger a change in the display.

      That said, the other concern is that we got within a mile or two of our exit from I-5 in Winlock, WA without a change in the direction tile (it would have been very nice if it had switched to a blue “you have to do something” tile farther out, say maybe 10 or 20 miles out.
