Recently I have been getting some odd behavior when using Ford Navigation in my 22 Mach-e. I have always had an issue where the NAV system thinks that when I am parked in my garage I am parked on the street about 30 yards away. Recently, when in a parking lot, the NAV seems to not know quite where I am and gives me totally odd directions. Yesterday, for example, I was in a parking lot in Reseda just off Ventura blvd. and was heading for a location in Woodland Hills. I had to exit the parking lot and turn left onto Ventura but the NAV system gave me directions to turn on another street then began to give me direction to turn right then right again on streets quite a way from where I was actually located. The NAV map eventually showed that I was driving through the middle of a park about 50 yards from where I actually was. After a while the NAV switched to showing me on Ventura and then gave me correct directions to my destination. This doesn't happen with the NAV on my wife's Ford Escape. Has anyone seen this behavior?

I had an Explorer that did that. It had a defective antenna.
