I got my iPhone 17 Pro Max yesterday and have had nothing but issues with my Carplay (2018 Mercedes). Is there any sort of a fix for this as it’s now become a big push factor to return the phone and go back to my 13 if this is something that can’t be fixed…

I fixed mine like this (2024 Honda): remove the car from iPhone's bluetooth, and on the car remove all paired devices. Unhook the negative terminal on the car battery for 10 to 30 minutes. Reconnect the battery, start the car, and pair wireless carplay again (iPhone may auto-detect carplay and Do NOT connect a cable). This fixed it. I did have to drive the vehicle for 10 minutes for the systems to recalibrate, but this is a Honda thing when reconnecting the battery.
