BMW Carplay issues/Bugs & Google Maps

I have been having connectivity issues with the carplay since day one. Sometimes the device is connected and it disconnects automatically. In order to reconnect you need to remove and re-connect iphone as new connection. Sometimes the iphone will be connected and and calls will have no sound. I called Apple and they told me BMW needs to update their firmware. Checked the BMW site and says no Idrive update. Plus when you press the mic option and use voice commands, I see mobile.dev displayed on the HUD. How do you move a car into production and not catch that mistake?

Also is there a way I can use google maps on my navigation? I don't like apple maps and the built in navigation is not as good as google maps.
