Google's servers do go down for updates, maintenance, etc. I'm sure it will pass. You may also have a connection problem.

it's a known issue, google is said to be working on it, the only work around is a reboot

It happens to me regularly with spotify or Google play. The solution is rebooting the phone or force stopping spotify or goggle play. It does not happen with rocket player. Must be a streaming issue. Rocket player only uses local files.

Been happening for some time now. If Google is working on it, they aren't working on it very quickly. Kind of makes me wonder about Google's commitment to Android Auto.
