Android Auto Randomly Disconnecting

[Toro770]

After seeing the post about Apple Carplay and all of its disasters. I decided to make a post about my issues with Android Auto. Is anyone's wireless Android Auto randomly cutting out? I can connect the USB and have no issues, but on wireless AA sometimes it doesn't happen at all, and other times it will happen back to back or a few times whenever I am driving. I have another vehicle that is a Toyota where this does not happen at all. I told my dealership about the issues but they did not do anything about it. So now I am going to have to press more into it since it is happening frequently and only with my Ranger Raptor, but mostly wanted to see if the consensus is having the same problems as myself.

Yep this is happening with me at least one time per drive. Not using the USB cable just the Bluetooth/wifi connection to the truck.
Xiaomi 14, everything's up to date on my phone. Not sure about the sync. Truck is fresh from dealer this month. Any solution yet?

I've got a Pixel 7 Pro... I've had some audio issues and my phone calls are sometimes garbled...i hope the SYNC update solves the connectivity issues

Note 20 5G, but I'm not convinced the make/model of the phone matters. Technology is great as long as it works. You can't depend on wireless no matter what the format. Mine has worked wirelessly most of the time, but if I want reliability for road trips and such, I've had zero problems using a high speed data transfer cable like this one.

Digging up this thread because I keep having problems with Android Auto not working, and was digging through the forum. I discovered (I think) that there's some conflict when your truck is connected to a wireless network, like at home. AA would always bug out when I started my truck in the garage, while connected to our wifi home network. I'd spend 30 minutes going through gyrations of bluetooth connecting/disconnecting, resetting phone, deleting phone from truck and adding it again, etc. Sometimes it would mysteriously reconnect to AA.

Then, on a whim, I simply turned off the wifi connection to our home network and AA instantly started working without doing anything else.

Maybe this old post will help someone, because it was driving me nuts.

Same issue here. Identical experience. Pixel 7 Pro.

I have a pixel 9 pro and no issues of it disconnecting lately..i think it did a while back but it was very brief and connected again.

Does it happen in the same area, spot? Road?
