It appears that you are not initializing the initial position of the vehicle correctly: https://www.mathworks.com/help/driving/ref/simulation3dvehiclewithgroundfollowing.html#mw_38d9dce2-9b3a-4028-9ae9-ecc2ea8e8674

Please set the parameter from the link above in the "Simulation 3D Vehicle with Ground Following" block so that the vehicle is iniitalized at the location that you desire.

You can use the code here to identify the initial position you want to use:
