Outrageous.
What do you want them to do without an available fix?

We all bought a car with Honda making certain promises on the capabilities of the car.
Having a workable navigation system is a very reasonable thing to expect.
We did not make any commercial agreements with Garmin.
So for Honda to point that the problem is with another vendor from our perspective is fully unacceptable.
What I want Honda to do is to sort this with Garmin and do whatever they need to do to leverage their commercial arrangement with them get this working.

I agree it is fully outrageous in my case to wait now more than 2 months for a fix...

Easy, reintroduce the original navigation file that was installed from new, this should only take Garmin 5 minutes at most, not over 2 months whilst they work on fixing the faulty update file.
Then the Honda & Garmin incompetent management can argue between themselves for as long as they want to find a scapegoat (i.e. standard management practice) before they work on the solution.

I suggested this on 14th July.......

...Here's a revolutionary idea! Why not put the last working version back up so that us saps that upgraded can have their working Garmin back!

However you've not realised that Honda UK is managed by incompetents who have massive ego's & are more interested in finding out who is to blame rather then look after their customers - this is standard UK management training.

My Garmin Express doesn't give me the option as I managed to grab the fixed BEV Europe 2021.10 version earlier in that small time slot.

What was the map version you got today?
