It's been a bit more than that; about four years ago they started using machine-analyzed satellite photos to override street geometry in my neighborhood and decided that a parking lot is a through street; since then, nobody who uses Google Maps can get to my house because Google Maps directs them to drive down that parking lot (which has a brick wall in it and is not a through street). I've filed this as a data issue maybe a half-dozen times and it gets fixed and then breaks again a couple of months later in the exact same way. Drives me crazy. OpenStreetMaps and Apple Maps are both correct.
