Drive times no longer working

[Hgodfrey3]

Does anyone know why Google home will no longer tell you how long it takes to drive to a certain place? I've always asked how long it will take me to get to places so I can plan my drive but now it tells me that it cannot give me directions. Obviously I'm not asking for directions, just drive time

Hi Hgodfrey3,

Thanks for posting. I'm sorry to hear about the situation that you are experiencing with your Google Home device, which is no longer giving you the drive time to a certain place. I understand how difficult it can be when things don't work as expected. But don't worry; help is here. I just need to ask for some information to provide the best solution.

• What is the exact Google Home speaker or display that you have? You can check the "Google Nest speakers and displays" article to find out.
• How long did the device work as intended before experiencing this symptom?
• When was the device purchased?
• How often does the problem occur?
• What was the exact command or question that you used?
• What kind of environment is the device in? For example, is it noisy, normal, or quiet?
• Where is the device placed?
• Does the same issue occur when others are speaking to the device?

Please keep me posted.

Best regards,

Jenny

I've been having the same issue, and it's so extremely frustrating.
