    I have a 2019 yukon denali. And for 6 months I have been searching for why it won't connect to my phone. But after watching this video I went to the dealership and insisted they replace the firmware! Now it works beautifully! THANK YOU!!

      I'm not quite sure however I believe Android auto works from your phone meaning if it needs to do an upgrade in might need to be done to work properly. Try updating you apps and give it another try
