Default Ford Sync 3: Navigation malfunction

Just wondering if anyone else has had this?
Rather not go to the dealer as my next service is in a month or two. Other functions work fine.
Only annoyance is it always turns on the radio when starting the car.

Try auto updates in menu options or a few start up sequences to settle down the sat nav.

I re-installed latest version of Sync via USB still have the issue. It can connect to satellites fine when I check the GPS signal. It appears to be a maps corruption but only dealers can install maps.

I initially reverted back to a version from 2 builds ago and the issues went away. However Ford has fixed these issues in their latest build 23188, been running that for a few weeks now no issues.
