Hello everyone,
I'm french, I have a galaxy s10 in french, I use Android auto in french but when I receive a text message Mrs Google switch to English and try to read the name of the expeditor and the message in English even if it's in French.
It's hilarious but not very understandable.
When I receive text messages from telegram, everything is in French as wanted.
Did someone have this kind of issue? Some ideas
Thanks

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the reports on this issue.
Assistant in Android Auto currently supports a limited number of countries which are listed on the Android Auto official website. We appreciate your patience as we work to support more countries in the future.
For those experiencing this issue in supported countries, please refer to this article in the Google Assistant Help Center, how to change the language of your Google Assistant’s voice.
Important: If your Google Assistant reads text messages in the wrong language, remove English as a secondary language. Then change your Google Assistant’s voice language to match your Google Assistant’s language.

Same problem. Phone is set in English and I want to keep it this way. Google assistant accepts both languages for commands and sometimes reads my messages in the right language, but when using Android Auto it only reads them in English.
