I just bought a USB A - USB C cable to connect my LG G6 android phone using Android Auto and I'm getting a "Connection Error, Check Device" message. It keeps trying to connect with the Sensus system but the error keeps coming up and i have no idea what to try next or what to do. Anyone else have this issue?

Have you got another cable to try? What came with the phone originally, and have you tried it? Have you tried restarting the phone?

So I restarted my phone, removed the vehicle from the Android Auto settings and re-initiated it all. It now works. However, the Google Assistant isn't able to send my text messages properly. It always cuts me off when it asks if I want to change or send my text. Essentially, before I"m able to say anything, it asks me to say the text message again. Any others with a similar issue?
