"CarPlay not working with iPhone 15pro: Hello there, I have jeep grand Cherokee 2019 model. I was using iPhone 13 and CarPlay was working good with usb cable. Now I got iPhone 15 but my CarPlay is not working. I have usb port attach to my car. So used lightning to usb-c adapter to connect my phone. But still car play is not working."

Troubleshooting CarPlay:

For me, it takes a few tries to get it to pair, most certainly...

A. Usual Manual:

Read your driver's manual to find out more about syncing this.

B. Re-Pair this, while in Park:

Unpair your device from your car, and then par it. For many, they must have their automobile in park to get this to all pair.

I had this same issue with iPhone 15 and 2019 Toyota RAV4 which has the regular usb port receiver (not usb-c). I’ve noticed that it works fine only under the following circumstances: 1) iPhone battery charge must close to full; 2) you need an usb-c to regular usb adapter plugged in your car, 3) do not select a phone when prompted to do so. Then select CarPlay when either your car display or your phone shows the CarPlay icon.

Before realizing this, I tried my iPhone in mi daughter’s 2019 Acura and it connected with CarPlay directly without all the drama. But Apple has to do something about this. It’s a really annoying issue.

I wound up going to my car's settings and deleting all other phones in Bluetooth and CarPlay. I then introduced the car to my new phone and all works well.
