User level: Level 1 (4 points)CarPlay-when iOS 27.0.1 was released, CarPlay disconnected from my 2025 Ford Explorer. I have an iPhone 17 ProMax. This also happened on my son’s phone, an iPhone 15. I cannot figure out how to get CarPlay to work again. Has anyone else had this issue? how can I connect again?

This seems to happen often with iOS updates. It can usually be resolved by forgetting the car on your phone and forgetting your phone on the car and then repairing the two.
Sometime resetting the network settings after forgetting and before repairing the devices also helps.

I have heard you need to turn off Siri, then turn it back on, but in CLASSIC mode. Don't use the new AI Beta version. Apparently it is the culprit of the CarPlay glitch.
