I think the problem lies here ... strafeLoc is not a vector to a target but absolute position within the world ... so you must do something like this
targetLocation = chosenNavPoint.location;
strafeToLocation( targetLocation, agentLocation );
// as strafe to location is always running directly to "targetLocation" specyfing actual agentLocation will make the agent to look behind itself thus running backwards (not tested, should be working ;-)

Cheers! Jakub
