My new iPhone 16 Pro won’t work with CarPlay

got a brand new iPhone 16 Pro and it will not work while in the car. Never had any issues before with any of my older phones. If this is a new feature on the 16th i will be returning this phone. It defeats the whole purpose of having CarPlay

Well let’s start by asking what make, year, and model is the vehicle you are using. Next, what precisely do you mean by ‘will not work’? What happens when you pair or plugin your iPhone 16 Pro to your vehicle? Do you get any kind of error message?


My iPhone 16 Pro works perfectly well with my 2024 Chevrolet Traverse with wireless CarPlay so it’s not some ’new feature’.
