I have a Chrysler 300 with Apple CarPly. I upgraded my iPhone from 16.4.1 to 16.5 now my CarPlay don't work. after talking to Apple support and Chrysler customer care we came to the conclusion it's the 16.5 that's not compactable. I read Apple have 16.6 in Bata and offered is to whoever request to be a tester. that's why I asked will 16.6 fix the Apple Car play. Now I'm asking anyone from Apple.

Same issue on 2017 Ford F150 Platinum with Sync 3. Everything worked until an update a few months back. I have even removed and replaced the USB port in the truck thinking it had something wrong with it and doubting it could be my new iPhone 14 that was the issue as it has worked a week before it stopped on a road trip and using the Apple Map as the Navigation. Currently have the 14 updated to iOS 16.6.1 and still not resolved in that version.

It started after an Apple update, not before. As a troubleshooting methodology, great suggestion for others, but unfortunately I’ve already done the unpairing from both devices that (first about 2 months ago when it first started) without any change. Coincidently, my daughter has a 13 Pro Max that received the same update and it broke CarPlay for her as well in both my Ford and in her 2022 Nissan. This isn’t on the automobile manufacturer; this is an Apple Software oopsie, that likely slipped through quality control checks. If I weren’t in the Technology field and specifically the software dev field, I might be more apt to believe Apple software is without bugs that need fixes.
