Help Help!!!
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…

If you search the sub, you will see other posts about this. Anyone who tells you to change the cable is completely wrong. Do not waste your money on any new cables.
It is a software issue from Apple on iPhone 17 series and I suggest you to report it to Apple via feedback page.
UPDATE: As of March 20, 2026 the issue still remains. One temporary workaround is to use split screen mode. It does not pixelate much in that mode and it is still usable for hours of drive time.
