Apple CarPlay - text notification too loud in Honda

When I connect my iPhone 13 to my Honda CRV, and I receive a text message, the “boop-boop-boop” that occurs is at top volume regardless of my settings.


Whenever I try to find solutions for this problem, I find answers on how to make Siri less loud or change the other volume options. None of those apply.


Siri can be speaking at her quietest and my music and everything else can be on the lowest volume, but if I receive a text, the three loud beep notification that I did not select and don’t have on my phone in any other capacity will make me jump due to its insane volume.


I’d love to find the real solution here. This is my second Honda in a row where I’ve been unable to fix this despite being tech savvy and spending considerable time toward seeking a solution.


The question here is my same issue but the reply is addressing something else:

Hey there Cw7484,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand you have issues with the volume when your iPhone connects to your vehicle. You mentioned that any other notification is normal volume and even attempted to adjust volume settings per the tips from that other community post.


If your vehicle uses CarPlay, you may need to check for a firmware update from Honda. Here are our other standard tips to go through when you have issues with CarPlay:

We'd also recommend having another iPhone test connection to your vehicle to confirm ruling out the issue with your device specifically versus your vehicle. Also make sure your iPhone has the latest iOS version, 15.6.1 installed:
