Default Naviagation problems

Hi all,

does anybody experienced problems with the navigation system recently. Currently my position which is shown on the dispaly is way beside the position it should be. Even when driving i am miles away from my position. Any ideas on that issue? Maybe a check of the satellites? Many thanks for your help......STX 2.7L 2020

Cheers

Stefan

Mine has done that before. It always corrects itself.

Monday, was on the road nine (9) hours round trip and the navigation was sending me off the main highway down secondary road detours and back to the same highway a few miles later.
Just one of the many quirky things I've experienced with Ford navigation.

Need to get the younger family to load "WAYS", and start using that instead.

its WAZE and the device needs to be plugged into the USB to access CarPlay or Android Auto to connect to the screen.
The standard truck navigation stinks and I wouldn't pay a dime to update it. Heck my old Garmin unit is way better.

It is WAZE, and NO, you don't want that imo. I tried it for a long trip, hated it. Good old Google maps is superior in every way, and just so you know, Goggle owns Waze, lol. and I never use my Ford Navigation, biggest waste of $500 i spent ordering my truck.
