So you can have Android Auto while beinging degoogled. I do. As others have pointed out there is: https://github.com/sn-00-x/aa4mg

It's a bit of a faff to install, but works.

The problem I found is no SatNav that can take into account traffic. The best I've found is "Organic Maps", but it is open and works without the Google infrastructure. No getting round that traffic knowledge makes Google Maps better.

I have non AA things forcing me towards having to at least partly re-google.

I've been eying GrapheneOS as a way to compromise without being compromised.
