VW GPS Issue

So ive been going back and forth with VW since I bought my 23 Pro S 3 years ago regarding intermittent GPS issues where it will think its off the road or miles away.

The past few months however its completely failed.

While stationary it shows the right location, and from the dealerships diagnostic all satellites are connected and signal is fine.

However as soon as the car starts moving now it becomes lost, sometimes hundreds of miles away.

I've had it in the shop for the past week so they can get VWs tech team to respond to their open ticket... today I was updated with this and wondering if anyone knows what this code may be, or has experienced this before.

"OPENED VTA TICKET FOR NAVIGATION CONCERN (JT-1684385). VTA STATED NAVIGATION CONCERNS ARE STILL UNDER REVIEW AND VEHICLE SHOULD BE RETURNED TO CUSTOMER UNTIL CARNET CONTACTS CUSTOMER WITH A RESOLUTION."

TIA!

Spot treat gelcoat or strip entire car and redo?

Repairing an old fiberglass body car and have 1. some parts missing that I need to make from scratch out of fiberglass and 2. some cracks through the gelocat.

Been reading through the subreddit and the consensus seems to be gelcoat over an epoxy topcoat.

So assuming that's accurate/holds up for a vehicle body that will flex a bit, should I just strip the entire body down past/to the gelcoat and reapply, or do I try to save existing gelcoat where I can and spot apply new gelocat where needed?

TIA!
