Android Auto Incorrectly Recognizing Speech

When I try to send a text message using Android Auto, it seems to be recognizing part of its own prompt. Say, for example, I am trying to compose a message that says "I'm on my way". The app will ask, "what's the message" and I would respond, "I'm on my way". When the app is confirming what I said, it will say that I said "what's the message I'm on my way" or "message I'm on my way". I don't know why it does this but it makes me unable to send messages. Does anyone have a fix for this issue?

Sorry you are having problems with Android Auto. You can try the following:

If you're using the voice command button on your steering wheel, make sure to press and hold until you hear the beep. If you don't press it long enough you might exit Android Auto and have to restart it.
Start speaking after you hear Android Auto beep. The beep is confirmation that Android Auto is listening.
Try to minimize the noise around you when you speak.
If you're using an aftermarket unit, make sure your microphone is working properly. You can check with your installer if you're not sure.

I hope this helps!!
