Anyone Else With Satellite Issues?

NewQ · 07-10-2018, 12:50 PM

Some sort of connection quit working on me yesterday.

The GPS can't pinpoint my vehicle and has resorted to dead reckoning, but now thinks I'm in the middle of the ocean. None of the ConnectedDrive services work, including emergency SOS. Satellite radio is unaffected though.

Is anyone aware of a network issue currently? Or does anyone have any quick tips to try a reset?

I can't get in to the dealer until next week, and it's hard to get around without my GPS here.

I had the same issue

I am in the UK, car GPS thought it was about 500 miles off the coast of Brazil.

Took it to the dealer who had it for a week and replaced the telematics unit after the car was plugged into their system and running diagnostics for a few days.
