I’m having frustrating issues with Apple CarPlay. Both, my iPhone X and my wife’s iPhone 12, are no longer able to use CarPlay after 2 days of ownership. They were working fine when we left the dealership in our GCL Summit, but by the next day, Carplay disappeared from the apps menu, and UConnect gets stuck “connecting” to the phone. So far my only work around is to do a factory reset from the UConnect menu. However the problem comes back in less than a day. If I avoid a factory reset and just try to delete the connection (from both UConnect and our phones) and re-establish it, UConnect only sees our phones as music and calling capable. The CarPlay function completely disappears in UConnect. I’m not really sure what causes it, at first I thought it was because my wife used the usb cable instead of wireless CarPlay. But it happened again, without any cable use.
Anyone having any similar issues with Apple CarPlay in their GCL?
Any suggestions for a workaround that doesn’t involve losing all of our presets and profiles?
I contacted UConnect but they could only offer me a call back from a tech rep. I’ll be contacting my local service department tomorrow, but after googling around to find a solution, I’m not confident Stellantis has a fix, since CarPlay issues are affecting 2020 vehicles and other versions of UConnect.
