    Options Given Android 10 / Android Auto Issue

    I'm beyond livid with this Android 10 / Android Auto issue. Releasing something so obviously flawed is inexcusable. I'm seeing the following options: 1. Wait until it's fixed. Given it has been going on for, what, a month....who knows how long they'll let it keep being in place. 2. Sell my...
