Uber API invalid latitude and longitude

I'm trying to make a script in Node.JS when entering the address and it tells you the products in the place you are. But I get [Error: Invalid latitude & longitude] I do that with geocoding but every time I run the app with the same or different address I get that. Here is the code

var Uber = require('node-uber');

var geocoderProvider = 'google';

var uber = new Uber({
  client_id: 'KEY',
  client_secret: ' key',
  server_token: 'key',
  redirect_uri: 'uri',
  name: 'Uber product list'
});


var httpAdapter = 'http';
var geocoder = require('node-geocoder')(geocoderProvider, httpAdapter);
geocoder.geocode('Address', function(err, res) {
    console.log(res);
var latitude = res[0]["latitude"]
var longitude = res[0]["longitude"]
console.log(latitude);
console.log(longitude);
uber.products.getAllForLocation(latitude,  longitude, function (err, res) {
  if (err) console.error(err);
  else console.log(res);
});
});

UPDATE: As of May 17th, the method getAllForLocation does not check for lat & lon validity anymore. It's up to the Uber API endpoint to decide if the values should be taken.

I contributed to the node-uber project. The method getAllForLocation uses a RegEx to identify if the lat & lon values fall into the correct range. It creates a "[lat], [long]" string and tries to match this RegEx (taken from Iain Fraser):

^[-+]?([1-8]?\d(\.\d+)?|90(\.0+)?),\s*[-+]?(180(\.0+)?|((1[0-7]\d)|([1-9]?\d))(\.\d+)?)$

Do you mind checking if your specific values are matched here: https://regex101.com/r/wQ8bX9/1 ?

I just checked some sample addresses with google as geocode-provider, but I can't reproduce the error.
