If I choose to drive on anything except the freeway, I get told the road is closed, drive it anyway (the road is, after all, not closed) and spend the entire journey with a mapless screen. Great 4G+ reception the whole way. Happens all over NSW. Weird.
Google Maps, not shown, had exactly the same problem. It repeatedly told me to turn around and tried to direct me onto a freeway (out of my way, but theoretically a possible route, I guess) and then it told me the road was closed, then got lost and decided we were nowhere. We still had coverage, and the downloaded map remained, but we weren't on it.
Google maps does not know Newcastle, incidentally. It has repeatedly sent me on circular loops around my destination in Newie, and insists the tip has an entrance that doesn't exist, among many other inconvenient wild goose chases. It's fun to use, but gets massively unreliable outside Sydney. I cannot trust it, so I have both and check both when starting out.
Hmm have you tried moving to an area that isnt a grey, flat void?
With housing prices as high as they are right now you should consider yourself lucky if you could get a grey flat void.
