Pixel 7 pro gps tracking like shit

​

So I have a p7p pro and the gps works fine while walking. It can point my location too If I'm stationary. It'll track me if I'm walking at a slow pace but as soon as I get in a car and start driving, it gets thrown off by a few km, i.e it keeps searching for gps and shows me way off from where I actually am.

Here's the fixes I've tried:

  1. Turned on developer options and turned on force gnss

  2. Cleared maps cache and Google play services cache

  3. Tried it in safe mode, still didn't work.

  4. Downloaded gps apps like gps status and toolbox and gps test. Over there, cleared and updated agpss but still not working.

PS these apps are always showing either "searching for gps" or "GNSS: No fix" and showing zero satellites, it goes up to "2 in view" sometimes but goes back to zero. And yes I've tried it out in the open under the clear sky as well.

Is this a hardware issue? Because this happened after Android 16, and I thought the android 17 update might fix it but it's done nothing. I'm so done because I really have to use maps for navigating.... Anyone who can help out, it'd be greatly appreciated

Car in the range of 4.5-5.5 mil

Coming off a Corolla 2004 that is about to make me pull my hair out with repairs. That's why I prefer peace of mind over anything. By some miracle, I've gotten a budget of 4.5-5.5 million and the cars I had in mind were:

  1. Brand new alsvin 1.5

  2. Honda vezel 2015-16

  3. Toyota raize

(Sorry but Yaris and City do not appeal to me at all)

I can't go for hatchbacks because too small for a family. I had my heart set on alsvin but I'm in peshawar and there's a lot of stop and go traffic so I got concerned about fuel average.

Started looking for a hybrid and saw that vezel came in range, it seems like the "fun" choice but I honestly don't know if a 10 yo hybrid would be worth it.

Raize is recent but I can't find a car under 100k km, in my budget.

A brand new car would give me the most peace of mind, Idgaf about resale, but with petrol prices I just thought.... MAYBE a hybrid would be the right choice.

If anyone can please guide me I'd really appreciate it.
