Anyone else having this issue? Upgraded from an 11 Pro Max (on iOS 14.something) to a 13 Pro Max and ever since CarPlay has been completely useless. Sound quality wasn't great before, but now I can't even stand to listen to it. It sounds like using one of those old cassette-deck adapters and the volume constantly surges up and down. And when I'm listening to SXM with CarPlay connected it somehow still manages to degrade the sound quality of that audio. Google Maps constantly freezes, I'll be driving along for miles and my position on the map never changes. The phone itself constantly disconnects so I have to unplug it and plug it back in over and over. Updated to 15.0.2 with no changes. Tried all the ports and multiple cables with no changes.

Thanks for the heads up, I delayed the optional download and will continue until fixed!

I'm still on 14.7.1 on my 12 Pro, so no comment on audio.

I have always had issues with Waze being unable to make the change from phone GPS to vehicle GPS in both our Uconnect vehicles. I always kill waze before entering a new destination and it will normally resync to the vehicle GPS.

Do you have the 7.0 or 8.4 radio?

I'm also on iOS 15 and have no issues with CarPlay. I'm using CarPlay via USB connection and the sound quality is great. I definitely notice a drop in sound quality when I play music over BlueTooth to the Jeep/Uconnect. Are you using a BlueTooth adaptor or hardwired with CarPlay?

Nope, hardwired. Sound quality is great using my phone as a bluetooth audio source without CarPlay.

No issues here on the same setup as yours.

I've been beta testing 15, on 15.1 now and haven't had any issues with CarPlay. If you're having connections issues, I'd get a new cable and also reboot the phone (shut down from general menu). Sometimes the reboot during update installation doesn't do the trick. Also try turning off your equalizer settings in the music app. Does Apple Maps app freeze similar to google maps?

Both my wife’s 21 Sahara and my 21 Rubicon 392 have it disconnect all the times with our new phones. iPhone 13 and 13 Pro. I’ve just been using it without car play.
