I have had this problem, you have to see the dealer for this. In my case it ended up that the reciever in the antenna was not connecting properly and it was causing my location to be off by about 20km. Hopefully you are still under warranty for it.

Check the connections to your GPS antenna in the trunk. Could be something as simple as that.
