    What's draining my battery?

    What's draining my battery?

    I see the same thing. I am at 79% but the listed numbers add to 11. There’s a gap of 10 that’s attributed to nothing.

    Car manufacturer issue or Google issue?

    I tested in a different car, with a different cable and navigation behaves poorly there, just like my Mazda. It seems like there is some underlying issue going on. Now I'm not sure if it's a phone issue or an app issue.

    Car manufacturer issue or Google issue?

    I just got my Mazda 3 entertainment system upgrade to support Android Auto and Apple Car Play. My wife's phone works great with Car Play. I have a Pixel 2. The navigation integration fails consistently to find a route yet I have no issue if I just use AA on my phone. The same issue happens...

    No but they would fix/supply refurbished within a day or two is my experience.

    Nightmare Pixel XL Malfunction and Resolution Story

    I agree, Apple support is stellar. It would have been handled much quicker. If you call them, I'd mention that.

    Nightmare Pixel XL Malfunction and Resolution Story

    Given that it's out of warranty, I don't think it's reasonable to ask for a replacement that is a newer model. You could ask if they would provide a discount on a newer model but I doubt you will get more than $50-$100 off.
