GPS doesn't know where it is!
On the way home from work last Friday the GPS in my 2008 Avenger had my location off by a hundred feet or so -- it had me on a road parallel to the highway I was actually on (it was working fine that morning). By Saturday it had decided I was driving around in Lake Erie (I do live west of Cleveland, so I guess it's not <i>that<i/> far off). Doesn't seem to have gotten any worse (or better) since Saturday. I haven't upgraded since the CD I got in the mail last summer (don't recall the #). Any ideas on what caused it or, better, suggestions on how to fix it?

Update: It suddenly started working again.
I'm starting to see a pattern of sorts in the random electrical weirdness happening in this car: one-touch window feature sometimes not working, radio suddenly 'rebooting', GPS going on a walkabout, losing some feature on the radio (steering wheel controls, volume **** on radio not working, touch screen unresponsive, "Guide me home" in GPS acting like "Home" address isn't set up"). Mind you, none of these happen at the same time, most have happened repeatedly (though randomly) and all of them eventually fix themselves, sometimes in minutes, sometimes in days.
I've never owned a Dodge before... is this normal behavior? I'm starting to worry about other electrical components going haywire, like the switch tot he airbags! Of course, the dealer says they can't find anything wrong...
