Add closure report to Android Auto
There does not appear to be a way to report a temporary closure of a road due to an accident, etc. from within the Waze Android Auto interface. Please consider adding this feature.

Hey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

This functionality is essential otherwise you keep getting routed back to a temporarily closed road leading to confusion and high risk of accidents

This is a very important feature

The fact that this simple but critical feature is missing from AA and AC is completely insane. It drives me crazy every time Waze stubbornly tries to navigate me through a closed route while I have no possibility to report the route as blocked. I know that it works on the phone, but disconnecting the phone while driving is dangerous and unnecessary. Please fix!

There should be the ability to press a button and report temporary closures on Android auto. If it's not a button at least have a button and then the ability to say what street it is on and then it adds it. For the building by voice to say at a road closure to "Road name."

The voting does not accept new votes. This feature affects safety. To use the road closed feature, we need to disconnect from CarPlay and use our phones. For this we would need to pull over to avoid distracted driving.

It’s crazy and so frustrating that this suggestion was closed, even preventing people from voting for it! 😡
It’s one of the most requested Android Auto features!!Someone had to recreate it to be able to vote, please vote here: https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/46320607-road-closure

At this moment I can't report closed roads when using Waze under Android Auto

Navigation sent me to closed road adding an hour to my drive. Bridge was out after heavy rains, had this feature been implemented could have been reported.

Please add this feature! I along with many other drivers got detoured via the app to a road closure that added over an hour of unnecessary track to a 40 minute drive.

This should have already been added

So, this is still pretty important. Most states don't allow the use of your phone while driving, so most folks are switching to Android Auto and Carplay. Waze should have the same functionality in AA/CP as it does in the apps.

This feature has been missing for 6 years. I doubt it will ever happen at this point.

I agree, this functionality is very important

Critically missing feature. Needing to unplug my phone and report directly from my phone while dealing with traffic issues is incredibly dangerous and should not be necessary

This is definitely a critical issue that we came face to face with during the aftermath of the i-10 fire in LA

Please add this critical report option to Android Auto and Car Play

I don't know if my vote actually went through, but I think this is critical. Without the ability to report road closures, waze becomes useless because it just keeps telling you to go down a closed road

I can't believe it's almost 2024 and I have to DISCONNECT from Android auto and submit a road closure from the phone instead of from Android Auto
