Hi @MichaelER
Welcome to community!
Does this only happen when connected to the Android Auto app or directly from the Pandora app too?
To see if it would help improve your experience, let's try clearing the cache and data on your phone. You can use the following steps:
Open your device Settings
Tap Apps
Scroll down to find Pandora
Select Storage
On the storage details page tap Clear Data.
Keep in mind that the steps for each Android device is slightly different. If you have a Pixel, you can check out Google's help page for steps on how to clear space on your device. Please note that you will be asked to log into your account after completing these steps. You may need to re-download some of your offline content after this. As a Pandora Plus subscriber, however, you should receive that offline content again automatically.
