Can't use the phone app at all when connected to Android Auto (can only use car interface, which isn't as useful) in limited alert mode in a crowded city with multiple cars broken down on the side of the road, the system won't shut up (Needs an alert per minute option). Using voice commands to report things doesn't work well at all. You have to know the specific words to report, which wouldn't be that bad if it wasn't owned by a Google.
