And I think that is because CarPlay works thru WiFi and my phone was having a hard time disconnecting from my home WiFi and then connecting to my Car Wifi. I feel like things started to get bad after switching to iOs 13. So now, when I leave the house, after I get a couple of hundred yards away, I manually connect the device. I think if you wait a long while it might eventually connect. But of course we need it to connect to use the phone, etc, thru CarPlay. Annoying.
LexProf - you maybe on to something; that is what is happening with mine as well I bet.

This is super annoying.

Thank you!
