All of the sudden I stopped getting notifications in my car. If I get a text it'll show I have one unread notification but nothing pops up. I cleared the cache and data and deleted and re-added my phone to car connected device list. It worked for a day and then stopped again. Anyone know how to permanently fix this?

I had issues with it. Before I plug in each time, I have to disable Bluetooth for the phone to sync correctly.

Same issue in both a Chevy and a Mazda.
My wife and I recently started having the same issues in our Kia. It would disconnect immediately. I tried a force stop and cleared cache and data to auto. I deleted auto and reinstalled it. I reset my car's entertainment system. Nothing worked until my wife realized hers would work if we were in the car together (mine has Bluetooth priority)

Leaving in a bit to the studio :)
Other thing I've been too lazy to figure out/fix: when I bring Waze onto the screen in the Mazda, I get Waze on the left 2/3 of the screen and podcast player on the right 1/3.

Except I don't usually listen to podcasts, so no idea why that pops up most every time.

Try touching the Waze button again when it's in split mode. That's what i have to do in my Subaru.
