Error when navigating

I tried to use navigation for a 15K roundtrip run in a new terrain and encountered the following problem: After about 3k the navigation decided to lead me back to the start. When I saw that navigation simply reversed course, I stopped it and tried to reload it, leading to the same result.

When I am on route and my Fenix looses track it always navigates me back to the start without any noticeable reason, instead of just continuing the route.

I would like to report this behavior as a bug, Any ideas where I can do that?

I've experienced this many times. To make this even worse, the elevation profile latches to the return path and never self-corrects even if you continue on the right path. Basically the elevation profile remains stuck on the point where you are supposed to return and the top of the elevation profile gets flattened. Tracking of the remaining elevation gain gets ruined too.

Garmin has been aware of this issue for almost a year, but despite this being an obvious issue, I don't think they are going to address it unless more people report it.
