Incorrect location, date and time on MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)

Hi. I'm having an issue with date, time and location on MacBook.

I'm from Ukraine, but Apple think that I'm in Columbia at the moment.

Google show me correct location and time in Safari, but Apple doesn't.

I've already reinstalled MacOS, cleaned all caches, done everything what Apple recommended, but nothing have changed.


I've also had a display assembly replacement at AASP a few days ago. Could it affect? Maybe they've damaged something inside? I'm sick of Apple customer service. This MacBook has so many defects and they just can't replace it with the new unit. Every time they solve one problem, another problem appears.


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.5
