Reply to No calls on Apple Watch after using CarPlay
I'd like to update again that just disabling Bluetooth does not fix the issue. Wi-Fi would need to be disabled on the radio and use wired CarPlay only. I went back and forth a few times with Wi-Fi turned off on my 12 Pro, and it didn't break the connection. I however can't disable Wi-Fi on my Kenwood DMX1057xr, so I will be looking at other units.

I have found a pattern for this. It is a WIRELESS CarPlay issue only. Wired CarPlay is just fine from what I've experienced. Yes, Wireless CarPlay needs WiFi to work, but it establishes a bluetooth connection to the radio to let it know it's there. I have a 2020 Tundra with a 10.1 DMX1057XR unit in my truck which has wireless CarPlay, and my wife has a 2019 Honda Pilot with wired CarPlay only. I was able to break hers when I plugged into my truck, but was unable to break mine plugging it into her vehicle. I do not use Wireless CarPlay in my truck, but the fact it has wifi in the radio, is what causes the issue. I disabled Bluetooth on my unit, and it no longer breaks my connection. I am able to receive calls on my watch after leaving CarPlay. I'm not a huge fan of wireless anything, so using it wired works great for me. I hope this helps others.
