Default Nav got off track....

Came back from the dealer this morning, all is well with the world...
Hop into the car to give my sister a ride to school and the nav is now about 2 miles off to the north-east. It seems to try to track itself back around but just can't seem to get there....

Any ideas?

happened to me before on a previous car. could be caused by a lot of things including the gps system itself. like a cough, might want to have it looked at if it persists otherwise sleep on it (or reboot the nav).

Well it finally caught itself about 30 minutes into my commute...until then it was jumping all over different roads.... I pulled up the service menu and it looked like only 1 of the satellites was connecting up so I figure that was probably it....tried to manually set it and that kinda worked for a bit but got off again, so I was happy to see once it caught up and I checked the GPS menu it showed good connection on all but one. Dunno what happened there... it wasn't large buildings obstructing anything, I live in the middle of nowhere Iowa . Solar flares maybe?
