Same is hapening to me today. After 7 months of relatively problem free cruising al of a sudden today.. lights on at bright day light.. no AP.. no nothing and the MX thinks I am parked outside Tesla HQ on Deer Creek Road in Palo Alto. What is interesting though is that at the bottom of the screen it does show the correct city in the grey box. So it looks like the GPS is working.. but the CPU of the car is not processing fully.. Anyway.. hope for a miracle when I wake up tomorrow.
 
I have this problem intermittently since the first day (delivery end of September 2017). The GPS always shows the same position, after the car falls into deep sleep mode, the problem resolves itself.

Between January 2018 and April 2018, the problem never recurred. During this period I drove with the updates: 2017.50.3, 2018.4.7, 2018.6.1, 2018.10.4 and 2018.14.2.

Since the 2018.14.2 update, the problem has resurfaced with more problems now, the autopilot no longer works, intermittent wipers either and obviously the position of the GPS.

After contacting the service center, they decided to send me the 2018.20 update to see if it would solve the problems. Obviously, the problems have not been solved.

Yesterday, the problems were repeated again, I contacted the service center and they asked me to go see them immediately so that they can see the problems of their eyes.

On site, a technician quickly noticed the problems and for nearly an hour analyzed the logs of the car without finding anything.
He performed a complete reboot of the car and everything returned to normal.

He explained to me that in cars with autopilot 2.5, the management module of it is connected with the windshield wipers and the GPS.
It will send my data and report to the software team so that hopefully they can solve this problem.

I experienced this behaviour periodically between Oct ‘17 and Feb ‘18. Only ‘hard’ reboots of the car would temporarily solve it. In February, I took it into the SC. They saved my settings and then did a factory reset and reloaded the latest update (2018.10). It took them about 3 hours and was quite painless - I only needed to reprogram my homelink settings. Since then, I’ve had no reoccurrences of this and I’m currently on the latest software release. The SC tech said they believe that the maps get corrupted when an update fails or partially fails. This reset clears the corruption.

Perhaps you want to ask your SC to do this.
