Force location update to activate second profile?

Hello everyone.

Small (I hope) question here. I am trying to make it so that when i remove my phone from my Vehicle Dock, a GPS location fix is forced on the phone. I want that fix to then start another profile (Home) if I am in the area. Once that is set, I want a notification sent to my watch saying "Alarm the car" if I am not at home. if I am at home, I don't want any notification sent.

Now, this is how I have it set up now:

Profile: Home
All kinds of things, but context is based on my home location.

Profile: Car Dock
Exit task:
Location Set (GPS or Any, neother worked how I wanted).
If Profile Active !~ *Home*: Notification Send.

Is there something I am missing here? Whenever I have the GPS location checked, the Home profile does not actually activate until the normal GPS check and profile check is activated (every 2 minutes I believe). Once Home activates on its own schedule, removing from the dock does not send the notification (as intended).

Thanks for any ideas!
