I had an epic fail with Siri:
Me: Where do I hide a dead body?
Siri: There is a quarry five miles down [road removed for privacy purposes] Road.
LOL that is very very very funny.

Just yesterday, according to my dad's iPhone 5, we ate at a Hair Salon, after driving through it 5 times, then parking on the roof.

Re: Epic fails in Apple Maps
Why don't you give them some time, and in the mean time just use google maps? Nothing is perfect the first time.
