Resetting network settings was for me the fix (disconnects on Hyundai Ioniq 5 wired carplay connection): go to Settings \ General \ Transfer or Reset iPhone \ Reset \ Reset Network Settings.


Be sure to also remove the car in the Carplay menu (Settings \ General \ Carplay) and when you add it again, check if the slider is activated for 'Allow CarPlay While Locked).


Also be sure that in Screen Time (Settings \ Screen Time \ Content & Privacy Restrictions) the content & privacy restrictions slider is activated and that Carplay an allowed app is.

This worked! I've been chasing connectivity issues with iPhone 14 connected to 2021 and 2023 Chevy Silverado for months. The Carplay Bluetooth connection to the vehicle dropped randomly on both vehicles. I tried everything, but by doing this procedure IN ORDER, fixed everything.. THANK YOU!

I FIXED MINE!! I have been so annoyed with my Apple CarPlay, constantly disconnecting for years! Like everyone else here, I tried everything I could think of or on forums like this. This specific comment, saying the issue happens when it connects via Bluetooth, gave me an idea. I know this type of setting for Apple CarPlay on our phone still doesn’t exist. BUT, it does exist on the car side! I went to the settings in my car, and went to my Bluetooth connections and just disabled the connection all together. IT WORKED!!! Of course, the setting location and capabilities are different in every car. Just give it a Goog for your year and model. I hope this helps someone out there :)
