I frequently use my phone for directions while driving.  Most of the time I use Waze, but will use Google Maps at times also.  I have noticed that the Pixel does not locate well using the GPS (not sure I am saying that correctly), using either program.

Here's an example to try and elaborate. 

Driving on the freeway, as I passed exit ramps the Pixel would frequently think I was on the ramp instead of continuing straight on the freeway.  It would then recalculate for that, only 10 - 15 seconds later it would recal again because I was still on the freeway.

This also happened driving on streets where there was a subtle turn and split instead of a normal left or right turn at an intersection.

I have restarted the phone, tried using Device only and High accuracy for the location mode, I have not tried battery saving mode.  I normally leave it on high accuracy.

Anyone else seeing these problems?  What am I missing?  I did not have this issue on my Droid that I upgraded from.

This is on the 32 GB Pixel, not the XL.

Thanks!
