Ok, quick report and will post settings and images soon. AAWireless Two is a wireless android auto device, probably the most credible out there it seems but what drew me to it was the custom DPI settings. Sure enough, increasing the DPI enabled the incident reporting but best part is it basically made the screen look higher resolution, but still clear, not fuzzy.
My biggest gripe with android auto is that when I get any kind of audio directions, either from google maps or waze, it knocks down the volume of anything else I'm listening to through the car radio, for example the built in siriusxm. Does this wireless adapter fix that problem? Thanks!

YES! IHATE THAT! Sometimes it brings it back up, but usually not. This is using AAWireless.

I disable voice turn by turn directions when I am listening to something I care about. I just set it to alerts only and just pay attention to the screen when I know a turn is coming up.

That said, when I do have voice turn by turn enabled, it does lower audio but then it returns to normal levels when the voice is done speaking. I just don't like being interrupted on a podcast or when its a good song.

It's not and Android Auto issue, it's a Ranger issue. In my Focus using the same AA Wireless adapter the volume never acts like it does in the Ranger.

FYI one trick I didn't know but learned is you can adjust the volume specifically on turn by turn and alerts by adjusting it when those are playing, if you're fast enough to catch it.
