Default Navigation problems on 2007 ES350?

Is anybody having issues with your navigation system where it indicates you are traveling on a different road than the actual road? I also notice that my north indicator will show north when I'm actually traveling south? Everytime this happens my location is way off? Also I do not see it sync in with the gps satellite. Any suggestions on how to correct this?
thanks

I am having the exact same problem. At first it was sporadic, then it got to the point where it was completely wrong all the time. It shows our current location in the adjacent state! We complained about it in the past to the Dealer, but at the time it was sporadic and of course not happening when we brought it in. Today, I was told be the Dealer when I brought it in for service that it needs an new Navigation CPU that costs $1,000!

What was the remedy to your problem?

If you push menu one of the options in the settings list should be recalibrate, if you push it it will offer to recalibrate direction / location and will allow you to select your current location, it's worth a shot. Good luck!!

IMHO, that's just insane! Especially when a new Garmin (that works perfectly) can cost you MUCH les than $200. But, some folks just want that NAV in the dash, I know.
