I've noticed the last couple of times I have used Remote Start (when it works), that when I get in and plug in my phone it states that CarPlay is not available. The phone "sees" that it's connected with CarPlay, but the car doesn't. Unplugging the phone and reconnecting doesn't resolve it.

The only thing that clears it is restarting the vehicle.

 

Yeah this was discussed in the main CarPlay thread. It's a thing, unfortunately.

 

Yup...same here. Honestly I am not impressed with the Apple Play thing yet. Only had it installed a couple of days ago...They did it no charge as it was supposed to be on there when I picked it up but....'eh....

 

Yup, this quirk is definitely there. Keep us posted if anyone figures out a fix. I like CarPlay so far, although I only plug in for rides longer than 30 minutes or so. Waze is nice on the highway.
