Are you suggesting their current GPS systems have that kind of issue though? I'm just asking for an interface to be added, not a entire concept of GPS functionality to be added. I'm assuming the latter is already used. It's not like I was suggesting they use Google Maps.

Indeed. GPS (and friends) are a best-effort affair - works great, most of the time.
