Car Play Fail

On my phone, and only my phone, I'm getting the message "Apple Car Play failed". Every other Apple phone we have is working fine. Have reset, restarted, everything. Still not working.

If your iPhone isn't detected by CarPlay, make sure that CarPlay isn't restricted. Go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions, tap Allowed Apps and make sure that CarPlay is enabled. Go to Settings > General > CarPlay, tap your car, then tap Forget This Car. Then set up CarPlay again.
