Default '16 LX - GPS issue

It looks that my GPS stopped working completely. The position of my vehicle is now usually hundreds miles from the correct position. Restarting did not help. When I come somewhere to a city, it's able to locate the correct position (probably using wifi database) but then continues completely wrong way. Did anyone have a similar issue? Maybe I could disconnect the battery for a few minutes but I don't want to do it - it's probably better to take it to a dealership.

O.K., it looks like this is not a Lexus fault. I was able to resolve it myself. The problem is my dashboard camera Goluk T2. It works great but in some situations (I am still not sure when and why) it interferes with GPS. I tried to move it further from the GPS antenna. It looks O.K. now.

I also have dashboard camera too. I wonder it will do that as well? Thanks for warning.

Did it work prior to the beat sonic bypass installation?
