phone number formatting

Hi also had this problem when I changed last week to iPhone XR. I have turned off dial assist and changed the language from UK to Canada and back to UK. Seems to have done the trick.... for now.

After a trip to Brazil, my phone cannot correctly format a dialed number without putting a +1 every time I returned from a trip to Brazil about a month ago. Ever since then, every time I try to dial a US number, my phone automatically formats it the Brazilian way (00) 00000-0000, unless I type the country code. I have removed my Brazilian SIM card, force restarted my phone, made sure my language & region are correct, and ensured that Dial Assist is on. I cannot seem to solve this issue and it is driving me nuts! I can't even paste a number into the Phone or dial a number by clicking on a phone number hyperlink from a website because my phone formats it the wrong way. Does anyone know how to fix this?!
