We're retiring our Car View mode, to make way for innovations coming down the track. As such, we're closing this one out because the described behavior will not be possible after the change.
We've seen reports of some Bluetooth connections to other devices displaying Car View. There's also the opposite issue, where connecting via Bluetooth to the car doesn't produce Car View. The right team is aware of this.

A description of the issue. E.g. were you pushed to Car View when connecting to earphones? Did you get car view when connecting to your car at all?
I'm not able to get the "car view" while connected to my Fiat Panda bluetooth on my Android phone. The name displayed while connected is "BT Uconnect".
How do I turn off the Car View on my aftermarket android base car stereo? I am using the app from Google play store. I turned it off in settings, but it's still that ugly car view screen.
If you're still experiencing the first issue as described by this thread's title ("Non-car Bluetooth devices displaying in Car View mode"), could you get back to us in this thread and confirm that it's still an issue, and provide us with the requested info if you haven't already? We will then pass it on to the right team who can look into it.
If you're still experiencing the second issue where connecting via Bluetooth to the car doesn't produce Car View as expected, we suggest you create a new thread for it in the help boards so that we can handle it separately. Feel free to post the link here so that other users can head over to it and leave the required info - we will then escalate it to our Ongoing Issues board and help you troubleshoot it if it's still an issue.
I continue to have the same issue I already posted. All of my settings are where they should be to turn this feature off, but I still have the Car View that I would to have turned off and go back to the screen we use to have.
