Iphone12 not wireless charging

My iPhone 12 won’t charge on wireless charger, approved chargers are being used. Additionally I have a new car with wireless slot, will charge iPhone 11 but not iPhone 12. Is this a bug?

iPhone 12, 14

Try and Force Restart your iPhone EXACTLY as shown below and see whether that resolves the issue:

  • Press and quickly release Volume UP button
  • Press and quickly release Volume DOWN button
  • Press and Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears and then release the Side button (Can take up to 20 seconds. (DO NOT release Side Button when invited to Slide Power OFF).

I have the exact problem and I wish people would stop telling me I'm positioning the phone wrong. I've been using Qi chargers for years FFS. This is such a ridiculous issue, here is my hesitation with sending it to Apple to fix. When they restart the phone they will NOT notice that there is an issue because it always fixes the issue with a restart. How long will they actually test the device before deeming it fine and returning it to me without taking any action?
