iOS: Pandora won't load check network connection

So, recently I had two problems occur at once. The Pandora preset in my car (2018 Acura) won't load and gives me a message that due to copyright restrictions it cannot play music (as if I'm outside the US). At the same time, Pandora won't load on my iphone, telling me that "cannot connect to Pandora, check your network connection and try again). (My network connection is fine!). Pandora does still work on my laptop. I have tried the basic troubleshooting instructions (turn off phone, delete and re-install Pandora) with no success. I notice that I cannot add Pandora to the location services on my phone, which I imagine might solve the problem, but it doesn't show as an option. I speculate on why, and have two ideas. One is the I recently made the upgrade from IOS 18;3.1 to 18.3.2, could that have done anything. (I have an iphone XR). The other is that I was recently outside the USA. I didn't try to use Pandora while outside the US (I"ve learned that it won't work) but maybe somehow Pandora thinks I'm still away. (My car was not outside the US, though!). Anyway, if anyone has any ideas about how to solve this problem, I'd like to hear them. I have also opened a ticket with Pandora help, btw, but not heard back yet. Thank you!
