Built in navigation doesn't find any addresses

Guys,
I'm sure this has been covered but I didn't find anything definitive. Today I wanted to try out my navigation for the first time in 4 years (2020 Ram larger screen). I keyed in an address and the nav returned an error (can't remember the exact error) but it basically said it couldn't find the address try offline. Of course off line didn't work either. Is this to be expected since I didn't maintain my SiriusXM subscription?

Without updates or subscription, it won't work. At least that's my understanding.

Wow, I'm glad I have Car Play or this would be a sham. Pay for the larger screen and the nav doesn't work without a subscription. Just doesn't seem right but then again that was the first time I've tried it in 4 years so it obviously wasn't too important.

Same here, I'm off subscription and mine still works. But, I am also pretty sure that the online search has always failed but offline works just fine.

It should work for any address that existed when your maps were last updated.
@Rupp this is the answer. 2020 truck has 2018 maps in it, so if the address is newer than 6 years ago it won't find it. My house is in a field according to my Nav because it was built in 2019.
