My 2015 model S has appallingly bad voice recognition and turn by turn directions compared to my phone (1st gen Android Pixel) from the same year. Both have software updates but the car is really, really bad when it comes to those things.

I'm happy with the bluetooth though, and I've never had a random reboot.

Fwiw, every car has terrible voice recognition.

I've actually had cars with fantastic voice recognition, but they have always been when using Android Auto in the car (so it's not really the car doing the voice recog)

I used AA a TON in an Audi TT convertible and it would correctly understand me even while driving on the highway with the top down!

Funnily enough, the built-in voice recognition in the Audi was horrible and was hard to get working right even when sitting still.
