I guess you can unplug the battery let it reset. Or continue driving it'll reset itself. Happens to me.

most times, navi misjudging location issues are associated with the antenna. id check for any breaks or loose connections if possible, try a hard reset first.

You have to reset it from unit itself. It's located in the trunk
