Assistive touch and Apple Carplay problems - BMW

Anyone facing this problem post iOS 14.2 update.

If the assistive touch is on, the Carplay menu doesn't work in BMW E90. You won't be able to select any menu or input anything using iDrive controller.

Everything works as expected if the Assistive touch is switched off!

Is this already known reported problem or still some blame game is on between BMW and Apple?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14
