This only happens with my husband's phone, but not mine. Mine is a Pixel 7 Pro. Whenever we have his phone plugged into the Android Auto it will work for a bit and then it will disconnect and this notification will show up on his screen. We have the charger turned off on my car. It only happens if the phone is down in the charging area and not in a cupholder. What "reader" is the phone asking us to hold it to?

My 2023 was purchased used and it was a rental car so this was driving me mad! I got maybe 95% of the scratches out. What is left you have to lean in close to see. It is so shiny now that you can even see how dirty my windshield is! The spot that looks like a ding in my console is actually a small splat on my windshield. A genuine review, you don't need the blue container, just the green and red. When you are done, a damp microfiber cloth works just as well as the blue stuff and the container of the blue leaks because it is so thin.

Procedure:

You use the one labeled Heavy Scratches (Green) first. It says to rub in straight lines at an angle to the deep scratches using moderate pressure. It almost dries on there kind of like light, gritty car wax, or stove top cleaner. I just kept applying small pea sized amounts to the cloth that came with it. The cloth is similar to shop towels.

When I was satisfied that the deep scratches were shallow enough, I moved on to the Light Scratch remover (Red). The light scratch remover is more of a lighter cream consistency and buffs out faster. Pretty quickly after you apply that, the plastic turns into a nice shine. You are supposed to massage this into the plastic in small circles. You honestly could be done here and skip the shine and protect and save yourself some money.

If there is any residue left in any creases you could wipe that up with a damp cloth. I did use the blue Shine and Protect because I had it. I wiped down the entire console area with it because it is also a cleaner.
