CLLocation Timestamp is always zero

The CLLocation timestamp is always zero on iPhone 6+, IOS 11.4, Xcode 9.4.1.

Latitude: 30.598748
Longitude: -97.820877
Altitude: 308.921658
HAccuracy: 10.000000
VAccuracy: 4.000000
Timestamp: 0.000000 <======

Is there some setting that will give me accurate timestamp? Here is the code that prints it:

print("Latitude: (String(format: "%.6f", location.coordinate.latitude))")
print("Longitude: (String(format: "%.6f", location.coordinate.longitude))")
print("Altitude: (String(format: "%.6f", location.altitude))")
print("HAccuracy: (String(format: "%.6f", location.horizontalAccuracy))")
print("VAccuracy: (String(format: "%.6f", location.verticalAccuracy))")
print("Timestamp: (String(format: "%.6f", location.timestamp as CVarArg))")

The timestamp is an object of type Date. It should print with this:

timestamp

Date

print("Timestamp: (String(format: "%@", location.timestamp))")


print("Timestamp: (location.timestamp)")

print
