Motive not currently working properly

I notified my company that the app wasn’t working correctly a couple weeks ago. I sent in screenshots of the problem. It does not log off driving once the vehicle stops.
That was weeks ago with no response. Yesterday it ran me over on drivetime because it didn’t shut down from driving mode. Now, they say they know they have a problem. If they know they have a problem they should be telling the thousands of drivers out there that are using their app and getting charged for drivetime they’re not using by their app. But they haven’t yet. This is not a good company. good companies are transparent and let people know when there is a problem with their software. Before they run into trouble.
