iPhone 15 Pro Max Carplay Issues

My 22 rubicon has both usb and usb c ports and neither work. Getting the software update next week and was told I need dealer to do it. I think they will fix at some point

I bought these cables and they work with my RX350! If you have USB-A ports in your car, give these a try.

This short fast-charge cord really works. Apple CarPlay shows up instantly. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2JZXW8L?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

I called UConnect. Apparently my RAM 2500 needs a software update maybe everyone’s does?

We finally got our iPhone 15. Pro Max to CarPlay. Shutdown the phone and then started it up, now I have CarPlay working.

Here is the summary Apple…

It seems to be happening to a ton of ppl. I’m seeing mostly jeeps, rams, so let’s say dodge ram jeep (this whole family of brands). It could be more but definitely see a pattern of these vehicles. It’s definitely on apples end and I believe it is software. Ppl have tried different cords, different usb types (c and a). No one has found a good fix. I had it working, turned my car off, left the phone in the weathertech cup holder with the cord connected, turned it back on and it did not connect. I feel like if it was hardware and I had it working, then turning the car on and off wouldn’t disrupt the hardware connection. So hopefully I am right and it’s software but it’s not just you everyone. APPLE, please fix.

I am also having this issue on my 2021 Ram 1500 with the 12” display. It’s not the cords. It’s 109% the iPhone. I usually have to connect several times for CarPlay to engage. Once up, it’s solid. But if I turn off them on the car (not disconnecting the cord) it usually won’t reconnect…requiring me to manually disconnect and try again.

Software update can be done w/o dealer. Just need usb drive

I have a 15pro Max and CarPlay on my 2022 Ford. I use a standard USB C to USB C cord. Usually works fine, but I sometimes have to unplug/replug, swipe up to unlock, to get it to connect. Once restarted the phone. Once pulled over and restarted the car - but that was with my other iPhone.

This happened to me, I tried the expensive plug in that also has same issue. My partner she has the 14 pro and it does the same thing. Jeep said they can replicate problem but technician only used iPhone 11 and it worked.

I have similar issue with Kia Carnival (2023; CarPlay updated last month by dealership) and my iPhone 15 Pro except I haven't been able to connect AT ALL. Used the Apple-supplied USB-C cable first and then every USB-C cable I had in the house (about 12 different ones) and no luck.

iPhone 13 Pro with lightning adapter works fine .... iPhone 15 "malicious compliance" USB-C just refuses to play ball.

The amount of connectivity issues being reported since the introduction of Apple's USB-C adapter on the iPhone is absolutely ridiculous. It needs to be addressed properly.

I’m having the same issue with my 2019 Jeep Cherokee. If I was connected to Uconnect, CarPlay wouldn’t even pop up. If I unpair Uconnect, car play will work for a few mins then drop. Uconnect can’t read or respond to texts after 17.0.3 update either. On a call tonight the screen froze and the person I was talking to couldn’t hear me. I’ve tried Anker USB A to USB C cables, I bought the adapter for lighting to usb c…none work. My dad’s XR connected to my car quick with no issues. Definitely think it’s something with the 15PM’s, I had no issues with my 12PM. Super frustrated.
