Solution: stop making vehicles require constant updates and live servers.
The entire point of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay is that you can outsource this task to a device that has a MUCH higher guarantee of support, software quality, and connectivity.
A car infotainment should be able to play local music, control car functions, listen to the radio. None of these require connectivity. You need connectivity for streaming music and GPS. Well phones are really, really good at that.

- crest 2y agoSimply remove the product managers or at least rip out their vision. Take that as violently threatening as you find appropriate from your personal experience with nested menus on touch screens replacing simple buttons you could operate without looking down.
