ios 14.2 carplay issues

I have an iPhone 8 plus and just recently upgraded to ios 14.2. When I connect my phone to CarPlay it keeps connecting and disconnecting. I bought a new cable to make sure that was not the issue and it did not fix the problem. I can no longer control the music through the buttons on the steering wheel and when I try to control it through the radio the screen says CarPlay not responding. Anyone having this issue with the upgrade? How did you fix this or can it be fixed?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14

Thank you. I disabled assistive touch and that solved the issue. I wish Apple fully tested their updates before sending them out. There’s no excuse for an update to cause a problem that wasn’t there before. I have never had a problem with using assistive touch with car play until the update.

I have an iPhone X and recently upgraded to IOS 14.2 and had a different upgrade caused problem. The CarPlay would load but I could not use the audio knob on the control to select menu items. I would have to select music, podcast, phone etc. on my iPhone to get a different menu item. However, disabling the assistive touch under settings, accessibility resolved my problem. Thanks
