Bluetooth connection keeps dropping with paired devices

My Bluetooth connected devices keep dropping off Bluetooth. I am able to pair them again but it does not last. I am especially frustrated that my Honda (2026) keeps loosing Bluetooth connection. I have followed the troubleshooting instructions to clear the devices, etc. My phone is a iPhone 16e, iOS version 26.2.1. Any suggestions?

iPhone 16e, iOS 26

Yes, please update to iOS 26.3 released just a few days ago. Multiple users on various social media platforms are reporting better pairing after updating. After updating I suggest deleting all devices from your Honda’s listed devices and then pairing using the Honda’s head unit.
