Are you rooted? Do you ever use the Locations app for anything else?

Try the following:

In the app drawer

Go to "Car"
Go to settings.(Press the small buttons below the weather, clock etc)
Go to default navigation app and change it to what you want there.

I'm also having trouble with this. When ever I click on a contact address it opens up HTC Locations, and there are no defaults sets for Locations app to clear.

Thanks, that solved the problem.

However there is tiny issue with it; when opening google maps with "Select other map" option, that dreadful 3 dot menu option appears on the bottom, and it stays there (even inside Google navigation if I load it from maps) till i switch out of the app and switch back in again. A minor inconvenience, but far better than always going to edit contact > Copy address > load Google maps > Paste and search for the address.
