I would like to share my experience in hopes that it prevents others from encountering a similar situation. My vehicle’s Infotainment system failed to work as expected, prompting me to seek assistance from the service department. Despite assurances from the staff that the issue had been fixed, I discovered upon using the system that it remained non-functional.
When I notified the Service Advisor that the problem persisted, I was told that the system itself was working and that the cable connecting my phone to the Infotainment unit was the culprit. Acting on this advice, I purchased an Apple cable directly and returned to the service department for further assistance as it still was not working. Once again, I was told that the cable was causing the problem. To rule out any doubt, I bought a second cable from the Apple Store, but the issue continued.
Seeking further help, I contacted Apple Service. Through their support and thorough troubleshooting, it was determined that the real problem lay with my iPhone—which was purchased new in May 2025—not with the Infotainment system or the cable. Apple subsequently replaced my phone, after which the system started working as it
should. I would like to point out that it was never suggested that there might be an issue with my phone.
Altogether, I spent $400 on this matter, which included a $185 diagnostic fee. Unfortunately, these expenses did not resolve the underlying issue, leaving me dissatisfied with the outcome.

Hi Louise. thank you for taking the time to provide context and for your persistence in working with your Apple Store to identify the root cause of the issue. We understand how frustrating this must have been and we're happy everything is working as it should. Safe travels.
My response:
Yes I think anyone would be frustrated paying $400 for nothing. I’ve been a loyal GM Chevy for over 40 years but this one experience has changed my mind.
