After I made the initial post about this, however long ago, the problem did go away after a software update. As I recall, it was Android Auto that updated. Then everything was fine until a couple of months ago, when it started returning to the channels list after a thumb-down. I'm having the issue again, and it seems like several others are as well. And you're completely correct. This is a huge safety issue because it takes the driver's eyes off the road every time Pandora's algorithm plays something stupid or horrible. Which seems to happen in clumps of 5 or more horrible songs in a row recently.

@heyanmarie I moved your post over to this existing thread: Poor content recommendations on Thumbprint Radio
Thumbprint Radio uses your thumbs to create a unique listening experience. By playing both thumbed-up and non-thumbed tracks from across all your stations, we hope to bring you lots of your favorites while sprinkling in some new finds in a seamless listening journey.
If the tracks you're hearing don't appeal to you, feel free to give them a Thumb Down on Thumbprint Radio. It won't affect that song's Thumb rating elsewhere, but it will stop Thumbprint Radio from playing that track.
You may also want to review your other stations and Thumbs, as they inform the content on your Thumbprint Radio.
You can:
Edit your individual stations to delete your Thumbs Up or Down, or delete the station entirely to remove it from your Thumbprint Radio mix.
Try giving more Thumbs Up on other stations besides your Thumbprint Radio (if you're hearing too many unfamiliar songs), or
Give more Thumbs Up across your Pandora account (if your Thumbprint Radio is becoming repetitive).
Hope this helps!

Hi @rosebud512! Thanks for posting
To clarify, when this happens, you have recently disconnected from Android Auto, then Pandora will begin playing through your mobile? Does this happen immediately when disconnecting or some time later?
In the meantime, can you let me know a few details about your phone?
Model:
Android version (Settings > About Phone):
Pandora version:
Open Pandora, go to Profile, then select Settings. Scroll to the bottom of the screen for the version number.
