Overheating new iPhone 17 in new car
I have a new 2025 Ford Escape and a new iPhone 17 pro max. When I charge the phone in the car on the charging pad, the phone overheats. What is wrong?

I strongly suggest not using that wireless charger however convenient is should be. You will shorten battery longevity. Use cable.
The 17 also has adaptive charging, it may slow it. Also is there a fast charging setting you could turn off?
Do you mean you get the warning on the screen that you should wait, or turn it off, or take it off charge and try later?
If not then it is not overheating, it's just getting rather warm.
No after about 10 minutes of charging, I get a warning that says that the phone is too hot and charging will resume when it cools down. It doesn’t overheat when attached to a cable charger. Just the car.
