Default 2016 XC90 T6 Navigation Problem

I bought a 2016 XC90 T6 Momentum in April of this year. I had a software issue related to accessing the weather subscription with Sirius/XM which was fixed by the dealer. I have lost connection to the weather service a couple of times, but have been able to restore it by rebooting the car's modem setting.


However, over this past weekend I noticed that the navigation feature showed the location of the car to be approximately 30 miles from where it actually was located. For example, cross roads would appear on screen as if I was at the other location. If I asked navigation to provide directions home, the directions were based as if I was 30 miles east of where I actually was. The same thing happens when I locate the car on the Volvo phone app. However, remote features still work. It is like the actual GPS location is off for some reason.


Otherwise, I have had no other electronic or mechanical problems with the car which appears to be the exception rather than the norm based on the posts to this forum.


I am taking it into the dealer next week to have the navigation problem fixed. Has anyone else run into this navigation problem?

I don't think its anything major - we've had to do a few software updates on the XC90's to address a few issues successfully
