Hi All,
Before I call the dealership, thought I would post to see if there is something I can do on my end about this problem. We have had our CX-5 for about 1.5 years and recently took a 4 hour trip to Chicago. On the way there, I noticed that the GPS screen would randomly shift left and then quickly readjust straight again. I also noticed that at random times it would show the car going completely off the highway and then coming back on again. On the way back from Chicago, the GPS completely froze for about 10 mins. It kicked back on again but then I noticed that now randomly it won't show the MPH for a second or two and the GPS signal will drop for a couple seconds and come back on. The screen continues to randomly turn to the left and then back straight....on some occasions it almost turns completely backwards.
Any insight as to whether this is strictly a software or hardware issue? I wasn't sure if there was a way to "reboot" the GPS other than stopping/starting the car but that hasn't seemed to help. What is the warranty on the GPS? Should I try and redownload maps?
