I think the best way is for you to add support for car_doors1 [bit 7] and [bit 6] (the 'car on' and 'park' bits).

Because your firmware is always saying 'car off' (car_doors1 [bit 7] unset), the apps will think it is parked. And, as the parking timer is not coded, the apps will also think 'parked just now'.

The Apps don't use parktime to determine whether the car is parked or not, they use car_doors1 [bit 7] (whether the car is ON of OFF).

OK.
