Does anyone know how to manage all of the usb ports for apple car play? If my phone is plugged in in the front and someone plugs in in the back, their phone automatically supersedes my phone. Its very annoying.

Another problem that I am hoping I can get some help with. After 3 months with no problems. Now suddenly while listening to the radio for about a minute, it will transfer over to one of the usb ports. I either have to unplug my phone or keep pushing the radio button on the screen. All comments are greatly appreciated.

Only one of the USB ports in the rear will envoke CarPlay. USB3 is that port. Have your passengers plug into 4.

As for the intermittent swapping to USB, I’d look hard at the USB cable as the culprit. The wires in those cables break after a while as well as a lightning plug in the phone itself can break. See if the problem continues using another USB port in the truck, if so, definitely not the truck. If not, maybe that particular port on the truck is damaged or has a loose connection.
