Seems you may need to add the iPhone 14 to the devices you can use in the vehicle's infotainment / stereo system ? ...


Else: The firmware in the infotainment / stereo system may need updating in order to remain compatible with iOS 26. (You can check the vehicle's manual for firmware update info., or check the vehicle-manufacturer.s help / support web-pages for download info. for their firmware updates.)
