So since I did the iOS 17 update, CarPlay no longer works. I have reset the settings on my phone, my car, went through every step I found online and I have installed the most recent bug fix. So I am at a loss and I am assuming when my iPhone 15 Pro Max gets here today that I will still have the problem
Current phone: iPhone 14 Pro Max
Car 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid
Greetings Erklee102381,
To ensure that you're covering all the bases, the following steps may be able to provide you with some additional assistance:
"Check your wired or wireless connection and your iPhone settings
If your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS, follow these steps—checking CarPlay after each step:
2. If CarPlay doesn't activate automatically, look for the CarPlay logo on your car's display and select it.
3. Restart your iPhone and your car.
5. If your iPhone isn't detected by CarPlay, make sure that CarPlay isn't restricted. Go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions. If Content & Privacy Restrictions is on, tap Allowed Apps, and make sure that CarPlay is enabled.
6. Go to Settings > General > CarPlay, tap your car, then tap Forget This Car. Then set up CarPlay again.
7. Make sure that your CarPlay stereo is using the latest firmware from the car manufacturer. Check your car's manual for more information.
If you still have issues connecting to CarPlay, contact Apple Support.
Connect your iPhone with a USB-C connector to CarPlay with the USB-C to Lightning Adapter
You can use the USB-C to Lightning Adapter with wired CarPlay in most vehicles. However, some combinations of adapters, cables, and vehicle entertainment systems might disrupt the wired CarPlay connection. In this situation or for cars that support only wired CarPlay, use a direct connection with a USB cable.

Take care.
I have a cable CarPlay connection (USB-A to USB-C) to a 2020 Toyota Tacoma. My CarPlay will stop playing audio when I get a text message or switch screens. Everything else works visual wise. I know it’s not the cord as I have switched it three times and am now using an Apple cord with an adapter. Please Apple, Fix this!!!
This is exactly my situation. I downloaded the Kia software with the intent to do the update today. I will try your process without the infotainment update when I have an hour free and post an update.
So after giving up for a while, even after trying with the latest released iOS version, my Bluetooth connection was acting weird yesterday, and the music sounded like a phone connection (I’ve had this happen on other cars as well randomly) I decided to try switching from idrive to CarPlay on a whim, and it just worked without any issue and has been working since. It’s been less than 24 hours but I’m hoping it will hold. Very strange as I have done absolutely nothing different, no software updates, etc. I know this probably won’t help anyone having the issue but I’m glad whatever black magic decided to make it work again.
Yeah, something's gotta give... it was working perfectly with iOS 16. I have a brand new 2024 car and voice to text is terrible. It picks up Siri's voice and just craps out after that. Please for the love of God fix this.
Won’t work at all on my Ford Fiesta. After it failed yesterday I haven’t been able to get it to reconnect.
Tried everything.
my phone is charging no bother, but CarPlay will not load up. Useless at the minute.
I’ve been struggling with connection issues for a while but now it’s just gone completely.
Idcrume is spot on. Had this problem with my 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid Touring. Tried everything, and no luck. Saw this very simple advice, tried it, and voila! All's well. Suggests to me that IOS 17 is not the problem. Refreshing your car's infotainment system seems to be the answer.

I’ve called Ford 3 times - every time they walk me through a reset procedure that involves opening the door, hitting the lock, closing the door, and repeating a sequence of holding the power button and seek forward buttons until the panel restarts (I think I repeat this four times). It seems to fix the problem until I turn off the truck and restart it.
Which nicely proves it's not Apple's issue, it's Ford's.
USB connection is working, because my phone is charging through it, but the car doesn't see the phone and the phone doesn't see the car!
Happened very randomly, not after any update.
(Last update, deleting and trying to reconnect the car didn't help as well)

How is that, Dogcow-Moof? I’ve read on this thread about many people that own many different cars made by many different companies all experiencing the same problem. How are you so sure this is a Ford problem, especially when my problem started the day after the latest iOS update?
Oh my gosh!! I am so glad this isn’t me!!! I have a 2021 Expedition and my husband has a 2022 Bronco! Neither are working. I need this to be fixed. It’s so frustrating. I thought I was going crazy!! Replaced cord after cord, reset it all.
APPLE PLEASE FIX THIS!!
I also have a Lexus 2023 300 h and I have the same issue. but not on my 2019 Chrysler or 2023 Hyundai Tucson.
Updated to 17.3 still does not work.... The wife is going crazy because she uses this feature all the time in the car for work and friends. Help anyone? The dealer worked for 1hour trying things but every phone from other people did not work. Are all the other Lexus 2023, 2024 having the same issue?? Is the problem only on the 2023 or ES models? IOS 17.2 worked one time and then stopped. Now this is strange.
I have a 2021 Nissan Rouge and a iPhone 14 Pro Max and my CarPlay stopped working after the most recent update. Since my car does not have the wireless CarPlay I figured it was the old cord. So got a new Apple cord and still nothing. I did all the resets, clearing connections, restarts, everything and it’s still not working.
Thanks for the answers! I thought I was losing my mind. Updated to 17.3 and now nothing in my 2020 escape works. I thought it was a problem with the car since I just got it. Guess I’ll have to dig out my car mount so I can use my Waze app!
Either Apple reps know about this issue and aren't saying, or they don't know about it, which is just as bad. With my iPhone 13 ProMax running iOS 17, CarPlay constantly disconnects and doesn't work until several tries. I also have a 7+ running iOS 15, and it works fine. Same with others here, my dealer, Alfa Romeo, says it's an Apple issue.
