Carplay still doesn't work consistently after update to iOS15. and update to iOS15.1. Most of the time, it doesn't connect. When it does connect, it soon disconnects. A couple of times it froze the entire car onboard system. Why on earth has Apple released a major system updates and two minor subsequent updates with so many issues? I never had any issues before with iOS14.xx Many rely on Carplay for navigation.

Hi All - I had similar issues with my Peugeot 3008. Here are steps I took to solve it (for most o the time)
Important: I noticed that sometimes CarPlay won't be detected. Looks like the Car's Multi Media System has an issue here.
In this case reboot it ;-) - Disconnect the cable from the iPhone, then Press and HOLD the car's multi media system key with the Musical Note (i.e Music/Audio Source) and the Multi Media system will reboot. Wait for the car to connect BT wise and then try CarPlay again.
As of today I get much better success connecting the phone to the car and get CarPlay to work.
Cheers

Same, No problems ever with carplay. Update to 15.1...and nothing!
If your radio crashes, it's not Apple's fault.
The phone interacts with the radio in a defined way.
There is no "crash and reboot radio" command the phone can send.
I regret ever updating my iPhone software to 15.0. Can’t use car play anymore and it’s vital to my daily commute
But crash when you play music or disconnects for no reason if you use carplay?
No phone is vital for a commute.
Precisely my point. This person just has too much time on their hands.
There are no messages at all under the referenced settings. It all worked fine one day and stopped the next on the 13 Pro.
What do you see when you go there? A blank screen?
For example, if you are not connected at all to your vehicle you should see a graphic discussing wireless CarPlay.
Let me also say that I really appreciate your interest and willingness to help. I am in Bavaria and it is getting late, so if I don't reply for several hours that means I am in bed. Thank you again!
It was worth a try; sorry I couldn't be of more help.
I have the same car and the same issue since upgrading the iPhone OS. Any solutions yet?
So this may be my last message on this platform on this issue cos I am dumping my iPhone for Samsung. The new update still has same issues. It’s a shame apple
Thank you for those suggestions. I knew the settings were correct but double-checked to make sure. Siri is active and I do not have Screen Time restrictions enabled. When I activated my 13 Pro I "mated" it with the 7 and it ported over all data and settings. I realize there are functionalities in the 13 that the 7 doesn't have. But when you google the CarPlay issue the problem seems to be rather specific with the iPhone 13. If this takes longer to resolve I might just get a 2nd SIM card for €5 per month and use my iPhone 7 for CarPlay. But I am sure the issue will be resolved in a future software update.
Have a nice weekend and again, thank you for your help and interest in this issue. :-)
I’m having the same problem. It’s really annoying. Here are the issues I’ve noticed on my iPhone 13 using CarPlay connected thru a usb cable:
1. When I open Facebook or any other app on my iPhone while an active call is being routed thru CarPlay to my cars speakers and microphone, the audio stops working and I can’t hear the caller anymore, the caller also can’t hear me. I have to turn on the iPhone speakerphone to regain communication with the caller. If I receive or place another call before unplugging and reconnecting the iPhone to CarPlay the same problem persists.
2.Sometimes CarPlay is unresponsive when first connecting my iPhone and I can’t move the cursor between the icons as it seems it has stalled. To resolve I have to disconnect the iPhone from the USB cable and try again.
please fix these issues!!!
I have two iPhone 11’s, one personal, one work, both upgraded to iOS 15.1. My personal iPhone CarPlay has been rendered useless in both my personal vehicle and work truck while my other iPhone works just fine in both vehicles, even with doing a factory reset of both vehicles and doing all those Bluetooth on/off, phone restart tricks and resets for the phone.

iOS 15.1 still doesn't fix carplay issues.
