Phone not connecting to Toyota recently

Hello Deborahfromoakwood,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, you have issues using CarPlay in your Highlander.

First, we'd confirm that CarPlay is supported in your region and that the manufacturer model is supported: iOS - CarPlay - Available Models

For issues with CarPlay, try out steps in: If you need help with CarPlay

Note: If you've recently upgraded to a new iPhone or restored it from a backup, try renaming the iPhone in Settings > General > About > Name.

Then try pairing with the vehicle again.

If the issue continues after these steps, do you have issues using CarPlay in other vehicles with your iPhone?

Do you have issues using other iPhones or Bluetooth accessories with the vehicle?

Hoping to hear back, take care.
