The receiver frequency is generally assumed to be accurate. In practice the time quantization is the far bigger error and masks any frequency fault. That time quantization is why most receivers report an accuracy of 3m or 10ns.

The time correction is better thought of as the fixed offset between the receiver clock and the GPS clock.
