GLK Navigation Problem

The navigation on our 2010 GLK is acting a bit screwy. Yesterday we noticed that the navigation kept reading "off road" even when we were on the highway. If we put an address that we know is only 5 miles away, it says its 5,000 miles away and we have to go on the highlighted route. Anyone have this problem before w/ the GLK or any other MB nav? How can we fix it? Does it have to go in to be fixed.

Thanks for the help.

Sometimes navi's do this. They usually need 5 or more sats to pinpoint your location. They do get disoriented once in awhile. It's should correct itself after restart.

We have restarted it a few times and still no luck. I guess it times to have it checked out.

Thanks for the help though!

This sounds a bit strange... I would have it checked out as soon as you can. If your luck is like mine, when the service department looks, it will work just fine!

Mine did this one time, but it was because I was in a area with "unverified map data" with regards to saying off road. Just to ask, on the miles, did you have the correct state in the address. I know it is a dumb question, but I have done that before too. If it still is not working, get it checked out...
