I upgraded my iPhone 12 Pro to a 16 Pro, and the new phone will not connect to my 2018 Mazda CX-5 with CarPlay. When I plug it in, it charges but makes no sign of connecting.
iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18
It turns out that according to this list of car models, CarPlay is currently only compatible with 2019 - 2024 CX-5 vehicles.
Mine didn’t work when I got that wire, music did but not Navi
Same problem here with my 2023 Nissan Altima SV. Has to be something with iOS 18 or iPhone 16 pro max because my brother’s iPhone 15 pro max on iOS 17 works just fine.
Review the if you need help with CarPlay link that I posted earlier.

I also notice my iPhone 16 pro disconnects carplay(wireless) time to time. I used Iphone 11 pro max before the upgrade and never had this issue. My car is Mitsubishi Outlander 2023
CarPlay is not work on my 2021 Nissan Rogue since i switched to iPhone 16 ProMax. What do i need to do?
Why? iPhone 16 is USB-C and most cars are USB-A.
This worked for me. Thanks for the information.
I have usb type c car but still not working
i have the same problem with my CX-5 2022, as soon as the iPhone got linked, the screens turns black and disconnect the phone
Try an Apple/Belkin charger.
USB-A is the side that goes in the car USB-C is the side that goes in phone.
I bought the cord and it worked for a couple days and now it won't work plugged in or not. I have a 2023 Honda Pilot Trial sport. Never had a problem with my iphone 14 pro. So frustrating.
If this doesn’t work for some people you can go into password settings, scroll down and make sure Accessories is turned on.
