A few days ago, we told you that Honda cars are hit by a black screen issue on CarPlay after the iPhones powering the entire experience were updated to iOS 14. And while no fix for this problem has been found, it looks like the CarPlay struggle in Hondas is becoming more widespread, and once again the culprit appears to Apple’s latest software update.
A discussion thread on reddit dissects the CarPlay problems on the Civic, with several users complaining that the app doesn’t even launch when first connecting their iPhones to the head unit.
“Does anyone else often find that Apple CarPlay won’t work even after reboot and unplugging and plugging back in your phone? Sometimes I have to turn off the car lock it and wait a little and then restart the car and plug my phone back in in order for it to work,” someone asks.
Other Honda owners explain that the whole thing isn’t new, and in fact, it affects many other models of the Japanese brand, including the Accord.
The worse thing is that neither Honda nor Apple seem to be working on a fix, and according to car owners, dealers blame the iOS update for these problems, while support staff working for the iPhone maker indicate it’s all caused by a head unit software glitch.
For the time being, however, there’s not much the affected users can try to bring things back to normal, other than the typical workarounds that involve switching to new cables and resetting iPhones and head units completely.
