Are you using wireless charging when this happens? I found that when my phone gets hot using wireless charging, Android Auto starts dropping bad. Probably some sort of CPU throttling to prevent damage to the device.
Nah, I don't think I've ever used it since I first tried it. I just keep my phone in my pocket, which is why I was so thrilled at the prospect of wireless Android Auto. It doesn't happen to everyone, but I'm one of the unlucky ones here with the issue.

when the Mach-E first started shipping, it exposed a bug in wired Android Auto that was ultimately Google's fault, and required an update to Android Auto to fix it.

Given how relatively new (in car tech terms) wireless Android Auto is, it would not surprise me if it's super buggy still.

Please let this fix the intermittent sound dropouts while using wireless Android Auto, drives me nuts.
I thought this was only happening to me. I hadn't see anything about it anywhere else. I've tried using different cables and switching between the A and C port. It's driving me mad.

I thought I had a solution by choosing the low quality setting in my YouTube Music app, but that was fleeting. So .... fingers crossed!

I went to dealer yesterday to get the update since I was still waiting for 1.7.1 OTA. Dealer was able to do the first part of the process and update the GWIM but could not update the APIM, they claimed they kept getting a download error. This was not to my car this was from Ford to the dealer. They tried 4 times and told me they would contact me once that was figured out. They are only 5 minutes away so not a big deal for me. Maybe too early in the process to do the update. I was the their first Mach E to come in for this TSB so they didn't have anything from Ford already down loaded.

This is why I’ll wait for the OTA, unless it never comes.

Agreed, but I got tired of waiting and since 5 minutes away I thought I would give it a try:confused:

The only thing I’ve been back to the dealer for was to get my 2nd Fob programmed. At least they didn’t mess that up! Lol
Anyone else feeling Rockrolled each time Rick brings up his wife's fob? ?
