How do I get it not to notify the car?

Which is why my original comment said Android Auto sucks.

Get the Android Auto app and patch away the notification. It's just an app, after all. Running on your own hardware.

So your default car navigator can do everything in your list, including launching a non-default app from your phone? That's some mighty car navigation system.
