CarPlay audio issues during phone calls

When talking on the phone in my car through CarPlay, the person on the other end suddenly can’t hear me anymore but I can still hear them. My mic stops working.

Phone calls interrupted on Apple Carplay Hi, I'm using a cabled Apple Carplay on iPhone 13 (iOS 16.6.1) in a 2019 Skoda Karoq. Mostly everything is working fine, but during phone calls after 1-10 minutes (no standard length) I suddenly cannot hear the other person anymore, but they can hear me. When hanging up and calling again everything works fine again at first, but after a while the same happens. Sometimes at the interruption there goes a loud noise over the speakers and the whole Carplay breaks down and takes a few minutes to restart. I've tried all the standard steps and manuals (official Apple USB-cable, update phone, update Carplay, shut down Bluetooth, enabled Siri, forgot the car and reconnected, I only have 1 USB-port), but nothing helps. Any other solutions here?

CarPlay Microphone Issue LexusUX 2021 Since the iOS 18 update I have had issues with people hearing me on phone calls over CarPlay. Siri works, other microphone actions work and even some phone calls work (to certain people/phone numbers). However a few people cannot hear me at all when either they call me or I call them over CarPlay. I have reported this bug and contacted Lexus who have noted that it is a known bug that Apple is working on but I have not heard any updates or potential fixes in either the 18.1 or 18.2 updates. I have tried re-pairing the CarPlay but this has not fixed the issue either.

iOS 15.6.1 Cant hear phone calls on CarPlay My husband and I have both recently updated our phones to the newest iOS (15.6.1) and now both of us can no longer hear phone calls while using Apple CarPlay. The person on the other end of the phone call can’t hear us either. Upon termination of the phone call the car head unit also restarts, even while driving. We have tried every suggestion on google, but the only way we have gotten around this problem is to reroute our phone calls to our phone speaker, which is really inconvenient when the phone is connected to headphones. We have a 2016 Hyundai Tucson and connect via a lightening cable. Has anyone else had this problem since the newest iOS update?

I have updated to 18.1.1 and downloading 18.2.1 right now

I have the same issue, constant complaints of poor audio quality (muffled, compressed, and quiet) from everyone.
