I haven't had any issues with connection, but fuck did they screw me over with the voice assistant update.
Used to be if I said something like "Home Depot" it would show me a list of the 4 closest HD stores on a map. Now it just starts verbally spewing addresses for those stores with absolutely zero follow-up. If I say "Navigate to Home Depot" it just picks one at random and starts going.
- Does it at least pick the nearest one?
  
  Sometimes, but usually that's "nearest as the crow flies" - my house backs up to a mountain, the "nearest" store are actually 1+hr away because I have to drive all the way around, vs a location 15m down the hill.
