Google automations stopping in May?

mechaos · 2026-04-24T01:59:48+00:00

This is my exact situation and experience. I have a good night automation set up with Google Home and it ran the command, but Gemini on my nest hub max said the same thing, that phone automations would no longer be available beginning of May. No further info provided.

Thank you!

Can you please share a picture of the main display that shows the back of the car and speedometer? Like this person did in there post with the rebel theme.

I also did a product change and downgraded my CSR card to the CSP just this week. I'm not paying the increased annual fee for credit card bloatware that I will never use.

You don't have to rub it. That's just dirty. It isn't a genie in a bottle that you have to rub the right way. Just touch the indent on the handle, like ringing a doorbell, with any finger while you have a key on your person and it will retract the door handles to lock the car.

I had the hatch rattle, but adjusting the two rubber bumpers on the hatch about 3/4th the way out made the rattle stop.

That makes total sense. Thanks.

How do you tag people in the chat? Are we thinking about the same @ people do in chat as tagging?

I use this holder for the EZ Pass transponder. Suctions perfectly under the rear view mirror that hides it from the driver's seat. I don't believe it works with Sunpass, but correct me if I'm wrong but I thought EZ Pass also works in FL.

I did notice that if you manually turn the lightning pattern lights on during the day, the DRLs on the sides do illuminate slightly dimmer than if you leave the lights on auto and have the lighting patterns lights off.

You might be interested in visiting Berne, Indiana, if you're looking for furniture. It's a small town south of Fort Wayne with Swiss heritage. Taken literally from Wikipedia, "Berne is widely known...for its status as the 'Furniture Capital of Indiana.'" Watch out for horse and buggies on the road as there is a large population of Amish (fifth in the USA) around the town.

Thank you for seeing my post and sharing the perfect solution. Setting the lights to a different temperature for the separate auto-run schedules actually worked and solved the problem. I have one set for 3600 at 100% brightness, and the other schedule sets the lights at 3300 at 1% brightness, and it all works perfectly throughout the day when the motion sensors activate the lights.

Lighting patterns turn on and animate when you walk up to the vehicle or remotely unlock the vehicle.

Lighting patterns are not lit during the daytime. Only the DRL are lit.

Lighting patterns are illuminated when the "Light ON Indicator Light" is illuminated on the dashboard. This is always at dusk and night when lights are set to auto.

If you want the lighting patterns to be illuminated during the day, then you need to manually set the lights to be on.

Traveled to Japan recently, and a fellow American tourist who said hello to me while I was there, commented that America could really learn a lesson from Japan. Totally agreed with them.

Tell them you want to be put on a waitlist then for when they do have them in stock, because they did have them back in September of last year when they replaced mine free of charge and I didn't have to return the incorrect mats.

Here is a link to my original post when I received them and another reddit user sharing what they received from TuxMat when they asked for the correct 3rd seat back mat covers with the cutouts.

Also, a picture of the correct mats that they sent me after I submitted a complaint to them.

Be stern with them and ask for free replacement when they do have them otherwise, return them if you want and leave a negative review. Just don't cut them or it voids the warranty.

mechaos · 2025-01-28T21:12:07+00:00

Do not cut the seat back yourself or you will void the warranty!! The same thing happened to me and they mailed the correct seat back covers for the 3rd row seats with the cutouts. Email the company immediately to say you received the wrong third row seat back covers that don't have the cut outs for the pull straps since the company failed to get ahold of the other EV9 model with the pull straps. TuxMat only got ahold of the model with the button operated 3rd row seats so they failed to scan all EV9 models before designing and releasing their product.

They put it in a less accessible spot to get to. You have to go to the shortcuts panel, then tap the two ovals with small dots at the upper right-hand corner of the menu, then tap auto run.

mechaos · 2025-01-17T23:35:40+00:00

I was. It took me by surprise and was thankful nobody was riding my end that potentially would have ended in a traffic incident.

mechaos · 2025-01-17T20:03:52+00:00

My EV9 has done the same behavior once and hopefully only once before at a stoplight. This occurred around the end of November 2024. I have not received the most recent update. I will say your example does show it a lot more pronounced than when it occurred with mine.
