Hi Marcelo. Long time and all that.

It appears the geocoder is doing two things: geocoding an address (and
getting the zipcode wrong) and finding a business (where its
associated details probably come from a different dataset and are
correct).

It's certainly worth reporting that if you provide an address with the
correct zipcode, the results show a different, incorrect, one.
Something similar happened with UK postcodes once.

However Rossko is right: a geocoder turns an address into coordinates
(you know that!), so it's doing its job if the coordinates are
acceptably correct.
