2012 MDX - IPhone/USB Problems
I have a 2012 MDX that has started having problems connecting my IPhone (6s) through USB. I have had the vehicle since August 2017. The problems just recently started. It worked perfectly until last month. First it would connect some of the time. then it started going in and out. But now it does not connect at all. Has anyone had this issue?

I've never liked the iPhone connectors because it seems to be a point of failure at the cable and/or phone connection end. I have a case for my iPhone 6S Plus that converts the connection into an micro USB since I can find that connection pretty easy if I need to charge on the fly. Have you checked another iPhone cable to make sure it just not that? I would also try using a USB flashdrive with music in the MDX USB connection to see if you get the same intermittent connection issue. I ended up transferring all my music to a USB stick I leave plugged in 24/7 and just use the streaming bluetooth feature for my iPhone.

2012 MDX USB Problem
I have tried other lighting cables and IPhones, none play. But they will charge the phone. That just does not make sense to me!

I would also try turning on Airplane mode to see if the iPhone connect and make sure no other 12v plugs are being used at the same time.
