What Owners Say
"When sunlight hits the screen on and off due to tunnels or dappled light, the screen acts erratically, flashing on and off and beeping. It doesnt reset unless the car is turned off and back on. Its a nuisance."
Anonymous, GA (2017 Honda CR-V Touring 1.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)""Frequently does not connect. Have to stop the car, turn off, plug phone back in, turn on, and it might connect properly.""
Anonymous A., WA (2017 Honda CR-V EX-L 1.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)""CarPlay only activates properly if you plug your phone in before starting the vehicle. On rare occasions, it might activate if you plug in after starting it. If you unplug your phone and plug it back in while running, it will never restart CarPlay.""
