   It often fails to start. I have to manually tell the car to pair with   
   the BT of my phone, and sometimes I need to reboot my phone. Sometimes   
   it forgets the pairing with my phone, blue led flashes fast, and I have   
   to delete in the phone the BT of Android Car and re-pair.   
      
   Plugging the USB cable works better, somewhat. Still needs the car BT to   
   pair.   
      
   I can not tell the thing a destination by voice, it doesn't detect my   
   voice. Can not answer Wasaps. some days it works.   
      
   Crashes, leaving me with no map. Sometimes a critical crossroads, so not   
   knowing what route to take.   
      
      
   Fortunately, I have a TomTom navigator which is more reliable, but has   
   its own problems.
