IOS 11 incompatible with Honda handsfree bluetooth

Ever since upgrading to IOS 11, my iPhone 6 plus won’t connect with the handsfree bluetooth function in my 2015 Honda CRV. I’ve tried disconnecting, rebooting, etc. Has anyone else experienced a problem with their bluetooth linking in cars?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 11

Same problem with iPhone 6S+ and 2014 Odyssey. Was able to restore connection by deleting the phone on car, resetting Network Connections on the phone, and then pairing the two again. That worked. We’ll see how it holds.

I also have tried many of the so called fixes that article mentioned. Nothing has helped at all.

Honda has no clue either. They actually told me to try the same things the article said to do.

I've pretty much given up. After a few minutes my cars display screen is lighting up like a Christmas tree,with the constant on/ off Bluetooth connection. The iPhone X does the same.

Unbelievable I spent $1k on a device that doesn't work with Bluetooth,and might have to buy one of those sun visor mounted Bluetooth units.

Apple really "F"d this up,big time. Can only hope the next version of 11 is better. The current version is a disaster.

I have a 2014 Odyssey and recently upgraded to iPhone 8 Plus. My first 8’plus wouldn’t connect to any Bluetooth devices. Apple finally said return it and get a new device so I did. The replacement was checked and it did pair to a Bluetooth speaker in the AT&T store so I left. It still won’t pair to my car though. It won’t even recognize a phone in the car.

I resorted to using the USB port to play music through Spotify but as of today, out of nowhere, that doesn’t even work. I am beyond frustrated. My 2007 cr-v And iPhone 6 had better reliability.
