I tried several different things before mine showed up. What seemed to do it for me was to clear cache, clear data and then force stop the app, after that the option was available. I had tried uninstalling before along with clearing cache but that didn't work.

This exact process is what I had to do too.

The update is still running fine today. I'm running Android 9. It could be why it's stable.
No question I prefer android, but things will only get smooth for everyone when Google gets their versions of android
on or close to being on the same page.

I then opened android auto on my phone and it did the setup process
I can't get the new version to work not matter what. Even says I have the 4.5.592854-release. Cleared cache, clear data, force stop, restart phone, go hook it up to truck, accept all permissions, go to AA settings and can not get "try new version" to show in settings.
Appears that mine is working now and not shutting off after opening.
Had to clear cache and data then uninstall (again) the app. Then unpaired my phone from the truck.
I installed AA app, went through the app setup and repaired phone to truck. Did all this without being plugged in.
Then plugged in and went through the setup for AA with the truck.
Don't know why/if all that was necessary but it seems to be the only thing that kept it from crashing for the 15 minutes I was playing with it.
