Yeah, don't ever connect your phone to your car. It has been proven that they steal all your data.
Better yet, don't have a phone.
Or a car
Better yet, have a de-Google'd phone and don't connect it to the car. Don't see why it is "better" not to have one at all.
You can't just go around proving people wrong all the time!
Android auto is, to put it lightly, shit. The compatibility issues itself are enough to make one vomit (try finding out what's required to use wireless connection) but once you manage to connect it it just gets worse and worse. I would not put it on my main phone even if it did work. Instead I bough cheap stock android phone and got a cheap, data only SIM (€2/month). The phone stays in my car, is not used for anything else and doesn't have any personal accounts. I'm fairly happy with this setup.
