Wrong route planning with huge detour

When I plan a route from my village to Madrid, the app suggests a huge detour that doesn’t make any sense. Even when I plan a route from my village to the next village, it tells me to take a 50 km detour when the direct route is only 12 km.

When I use TomTom or Google Maps, the route is calculated correctly.

Strangely, when I turn off “Traffic Data,” the app plans the route correctly. However, there is no actual traffic, since it estimates only 12 minutes to reach the destination.

The only explanation I can think of is that there might be an error in the live traffic data indicating that the road is closed due to current roadworks. But this information should always be taken into account even when “Traffic Data” is turned off, because nobody wants a route that includes a blocked road…

So I don’t really understand what is happening. Could you please check? I’ve shared the route from my village, Colmenar Viejo, to the nearby village of Tres Cantos (without personal data). Thanks for the help!
