Hello Juliothelatin,

I understand you are having issues with your 2023 Hyundai Sonata LTD and its compatibility with Apple CarPlay on your iPhone. To provide a comprehensive solution, please follow these steps:

1. Port Verification: To begin, it's crucial to ensure you're connecting your iPhone to the correct port in your vehicle. Typically, this port is located within the center console or dashboard. Carefully inspect the area and ensure the cable connection is secure. (Many manufactures have certain ports in their vehicles designed for CarPlay, and other ports may not be compatible!)

2. Wireless Apple CarPlay: Consider utilizing the wireless functionality of Apple CarPlay if your vehicle supports it. Wireless CarPlay eliminates the need for a physical cable and can provide a smoother connection experience. Refer to your vehicle's manual for instructions on how to set up and use wireless CarPlay.

3. Charger Swap: The quality of the charging cable can affect the connection between your iPhone and the vehicle's CarPlay system. Experiment with different charging cables to rule out any issues with the cable itself. High-quality, MFi-certified cables are recommended for reliable performance.

4. Vehicle Settings Check: It's imperative to confirm that CarPlay is not only activated but also correctly configured in your vehicle's settings. Navigate to your vehicle's infotainment system or touchscreen interface and locate the CarPlay settings. Ensure that your iPhone is recognized and authorized for use with CarPlay.

By following these steps, you can systematically troubleshoot the issue. However, if the problem persists despite these efforts, I strongly advise contacting the manufacturer's customer support. Their specialized technicians can provide further guidance and assistance tailored to your vehicle's specific configuration.

Hope this helps!
