Help Lost GPS Signal

I'm visiting LA and San Diego right now. I'm from Florida. I've been using my GPS while out here, which is also the first time I've used GPS on this device. It keeps saying lost GPS signal and then stops working. Sometimes it picks up later but like tonight it never did. Luckily the person with me had Siri and she got us to our destination. Any thoughts or has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix?
 
not joking but have you done a full power off then reboot cycle? page 1 of the typical troubleshooting manual.
 
GPS Status at the Play store (free). Recalibrate.

If not, notify whoever holds the warranty on the phone (carrier, big box store, etc.) You may be able to keep the phone until you get back home, but some phones do come with bad GPS modules.
