Apple CarPlay Isn't Working In Your Car? Here's What To Check First

When Apple CarPlay won’t connect, keeps disconnecting, or never appears, start by restarting both the iPhone and the car.

Check vehicle and iPhone compatibility, make sure Siri is enabled, and update iOS if needed.

Allow CarPlay while the phone is locked, and test the USB cable or wireless connection.

These basic checks can quickly restore music, maps, and hands-free features without technical help.
