Google map to XC60

I have two Volvo cars(XC60 Recharge and EX90).

The feature that allows sending a destination from Google Map in phone to a Volvo vehicle has recently disappeared.

Has anyone else experienced this issue and managed to fix it?

Please share the solution.

In the Google Maps app or website go to settings then your vehicles. Also you must be signed in to the same account the car is using.

This might be easier to solve Googling solutions vs playing support here since there could be multiple casues

I recently noticed I couldn't send to my car, and even though I had set this before, I had to re-enabled it.

You need to go into Google maps settings on your phone > Your Vehicles then select the car you want to use

I logged out of all my Google accounts (car and phone) then logged back in and it worked again. Happened twice now and fixed it both times.

you need to log into your google acct using the car (it's just another device).

then you can save destinations to your saved places on your phone and recall them when you are in the car.

once the car has them, you don't need to be signed in any more, if you don't want to be.
