I made the mistake of triggering Siri in the car to play an album I owned…and it signed me up for a one week Apple Music trial subscription instead. The switch was seamless until I saw the accompanying email. And there was no confirmation via the interface (visual or verbal). I still have the listing in the Subscriptions area of iCloud after I made sure it was cancelled. It hasn’t happened again, which I suspect is because of the listing.
A possible cause is the Siri-enabled button on the remote that can trigger music requests.

Chapstick, car key, multitool[1], phone, flashlight[2], wallet
I plan for the worst when I step outside the front door. The number of times I’ve needed a light is twice the number of times I’ve needed a knife, but both are immensely useful to have even when going on quick trips.

You can simply restart with Shift-Option-⌘-R and reinstall the macOS version the hardware shipped with or the most compatible version.
