I actually think maps is the easiest to replace. We have bing maps, HERE, waze and multiple open source projects.

Waze is also owned by Google, but other than that I think it's a good point that there are a couple of other viable maps options. But still, you need something that actually works well, or you'll get to re-live the fiasco that was Apple Maps, so I don't think there are more than a couple viable options.
