Apple CarPlay Not Working in iOS 18.0

I am using iPhone 13 and recently I have updated to iOS 18.0. Since that day, maps are showing blank on the car when I connect through the Apple CarPlay, and a message is displayed after a few minutes on the car screen stating the location information is not available. When I start the car immediately maps are turning to blank on the car display.


iPhone 13, iOS 18

This is the same issue I'm experiencing. Bluetooth connection between my iPhone 15 Pro and Toyota Multimedia System pairs okay, but Apple Car Play fails to enable and will only work if I connect my phone via USB. This only started happening after updating to IOS 18.0.1 - very frustrating having spent quite a bit of time re-pairing and restarting both devices.

I have iPhone 16 pro max and my Apple car play via cable worked perfectly with my 2019 Chevy Equinox and since ios18 when I plug my phone in it causes my whole system in my car to restart. I have tried a new cable, different port, reset my car, reset my phone, and made sure all softwares are up to date and the only thing that has changed at the time of this issue is the ios 18 update.


I hate you right now Apple. Please fix!!!!!!!


😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

i have iPhone 16pro max with iOS 18 and the sound quality is disgusting. Radio quality. Also, I loose my satellite radio when plugging in to CarPlay, music and audio just shuts off constantly. Have to unplug wire and reconnect. There are times when I’ll be in CarPlay mode and all of a sudden everything just switches automatically back to my satellite radio without warning. This is a major flaw in this update that needs immediate attention. It’s not safe when you depend on a hands-free experience when driving, especially when using maps or hands-free Communication.
