Narrative:
In flight; we got the FMS dr yellow alert on the mfd. We tried to reset our position using radio navigation several times. We were then alerted by ATC that we weren't heading towards dunfe as was indicated. They gave us a heading and said it looked like our GPS wasn't correct. Again; we tried to get our position using other navigation means; but it wouldn't reset our position. I then told ATC we were unable to use GPS and needed vectors. They complied and gave us headings to phl. Going into phl; we were given vectors to intercept the localizer for [runway] 27R; that looked 180 degrees off from what was showing in our mfd. We flew through the course and the captain lost his FD. ATC then gave us headings and altitudes and it appeared we lost dg. We continued with ATC using no gyro procedure to intercept the [runway] 27R localizer and complete the ILS 27R without incident to landing. We realized our GPS wasn't giving us accurate information during cruise. After consulting the FMS operators guide to reset our position using other navigation means; we tried to do that. After that; we asked ATC to vector us to the final destination.

Title: CRJ First Officer reported experiencing faulty GPS input to onboard navigational displays.
Narrative: In flight; we got the FMS DR yellow alert on the MFD. We tried to reset our position using radio navigation several times. We were then alerted by ATC that we weren't heading towards DUNFE as was indicated. They gave us a heading and said it looked like our GPS wasn't correct. Again; we tried to get our position using other NAV means; but it wouldn't reset our position. I then told ATC we were unable to use GPS and needed vectors. They complied and gave us headings to PHL. Going into PHL; we were given vectors to intercept the LOC for [Runway] 27R; that looked 180 degrees off from what was showing in our MFD. We flew through the course and the Captain lost his FD. ATC then gave us headings and altitudes and it appeared we lost DG. We continued with ATC using no gyro procedure to intercept the [Runway] 27R LOC and complete the ILS 27R without incident to landing.
