How did trouble shooting go with android? Did you have a chance to experiment yet?Thanks, I checked it out and have done all of that with the Apple support specialists. This really bums me out. I think I am going to see if one of my friends with Android can hook their phone up and see if it has any issues.
I wonder if the keyboard could reboot system using bluetooth or has to be just usb. The reason I ask is the one your were looking at is dual and I was trying to save myself money by using an old bluetooth one I had for my i pad. Just thinking out loud...Sorry to hear another report of CarPlay problems. I am also about to embark on a few road trips, so I like the idea of having a small emergency USB keyboard. Something like this looks promising:

Still searching around.
Curious what is your oil life at? Also some found wait until infotainment comes on before initiating Waze. Might help in future.I’m hoping I don’t have to resort to that. The ability to use Waze was one of the reasons I traded in my old Pilot. I’d be willing to cart around a cheap USB keyboard if that really works to reboot the system.
My PP has 5,500 miles on it, and almost always using CarPlay apps. This is the first problem I’ve had.
I’ll be interested in what the dealer tells me.
No I was curious for my own knowledge about oil life. Trying to figure out mileage when the light will populate.I’ll have to wait until I get the car back to check on oil life. Are you thinking the maintenance notification may be triggering this? Seems like it’s happening a lot to people that haven’t had their vehicles as long as I have.
I try to “swipe up” on Waze when I leave the car so it’s not running in the background, but rarely remember to do that. May need to be more diligent in doing so in the future.
1st week of ownership, was using Waze via Apple Carplay and ended up freezing the infotainment unit. It seemingly happened at random. I did not provide any user input and was using Waze and Amazon Prime Music Streaming at the time of the occurrence. I too received an audible beep and then silence. At this point, I couldn't even use the AM/FM radio ("App" wouldn't load) function but oddly enough, I still retained usage of Sirius sat radio and most of the menu navigation control but nothing else would load. After arriving at my work, when I turned off the engine and opened the door, I noticed that the infotainment unit did not power down. Later in the day, I did some research on other forums and to your comment, found the thread on using a USB keyboard. (Sidenote: Another work around was to turn down the screen brightness to the off position until you can properly reboot the unit.) I grabbed one from the office, plugged it in the USB port, did the ol' Cntrl+Alt+Del and the infotainment unit went through the reboot sequence and was working fine after that.
After some additional forum research, I too found that Apple Carplay in general has been historically buggy with not only the Honda Infotainment units which makes sense that essentially you're trying to marry 2 software systems to each other which is often times is a mixed bag of results for the consumer.
Because of my worry of battery drain should I dare to use Waze/Carplay while on a roadtrip, I'm thinking of experimenting with finding a portable/folding USB keybaord to enable me to manually reboot the infotainment unit should experience this again outside of my home area.
