iOS 16 CarPlay Device VERY Hot

Hello. Fresh install of iOS 16, not restored from backup, when plugged into CarPlay, the device gets VERY hot. Has anyone else encountered this? Closed background apps, restarted, etc. Nick

Yeah, i have this problem since first i got 16 iOS (iphone 13) and now i have 16.1 and still no resolve , i've contacted support and after a lot of ******** like change cable, cars, do a full wipe etc they said that the phone is fine and that the issue is from the car :)) it's amazing the ******** and lack of care , i've had Android devices for 12 years and didn't have this types of basic bugs... embarrassing

Same issue here. iPhone 12 Pro Max running iOS 16.1. Gets very hot when driving for longer than 30 minutes whilst using Car Play with Apple Music and Waze, and the wireless charging pad stops charging. When I finish my journey the phone is so hot that the Torch icon on the Lock Screen is greyed out, and when I try to turn the torch on it tells me that the phone needs to cool down before I can use the torch..
