Google has officially confirmed that a fix is now being rolled out for the issue with the missing signal icon on Android Auto. The corner of the Android Auto display typically shows information such as battery status, time, notifications, and the phone's cellular connection status. However, this icon has been intermittently disappearing for many users over the past few weeks.
Google acknowledged the problem and revealed that they are currently working on a solution. While the fix is not yet widely available, users can enroll in the Android Auto beta program to receive it sooner. The Android Auto beta is currently full, but users can potentially sideload the update (at their own risk). Android Auto version 17.8 appears to include the fix and is now being distributed via the stable track.
