    it seems all devices that are working off GPS don't work properly in my F12. My google map on my phone constant drops connection. My escort radar detector keeps turning off as well, which I think may be due to its not receiving GPS signal to indicate the car is moving. Same for racebox that measure acceleration times using the gps. Do you guys have similar issues?

    Are the devices all using just power and not connected in any way to the gps of the car? Many devices have their gps thrown off when they try to connect to the car's gps. Modern Fords are notorious for this. I can't have my phone connected to my GT350R because the gps goes nuts since the car GPS data doesn't communicate well with other devices despite the devices always trying to use the car's GPS.

    After reading around, I think it's my window & windshield tint. Apparently metallic tints can interfere with GPS signal.
