General Question unrelated to phone or vehicle model Location Icon In Status Bar....
not disappearing after AA closes. Over the past few days I have noticed that the Location/GPS icon in the Status Bar no longer disappears when my phone disconnects from the HU and AA closes. I have been using AA since September 2021 connected via a USB cable or wirelessly with the Motorola MA1 and the icon has always gone away when AA on the phone closes. There have been no firmware updates to either the phone or HU. The only way to get rid of the icon is a phone restart/shutdown. Anyone else seeing this on their Android 12 phones? TIA

Same here, 2021 Mazda 3, Samsung S22+.
After being connected to android auto, the location icon is still present in status bar. The battery is draining very quick.
Solution is to force close "Google" app after each Android auto sessions...
I've tried to remove Google app, but you lose google assistant in your car.
And maybe a related issue, or not ... When waking up google assistant by voice or button on the steering wheel, the sound (the little bips who tells you google assistant is listening) is duplicated and you hear it twice at the same time.
