So my z71 is on its way in transport, was built end of April. Does anyone know if the wireless charger will be in it? I'm finding mixed answers of constraints and all good.

One thing I noticed with the wireless charger on my ‘21 is since I upgraded my phone to the iPhone 14 Plus it’s very slow to charge in there or sometimes it cycles from not charging to charging which is super annoying. I’ve had to resort to plugging it in a few times when using CarPlay as it was discharging too quickly.

So if yours has wireless charging, bring a cable as a backup in case it’s not better on the newer models.

Interesting... My new IPhone 14 is arriving tomorrow (upgrading from an IPhone 11). It's not the "Plus" but I'll keep an eye on this to see if I experience the same thing. The wireless charging for my IPhone 11 has worked without any problems. Thanks for posting!!

You can search around on how to find the window sticker on this forum; there's a site that you can look it up with your order number.

My 23 suburban is finicky about wireless charging. Very hard to find the right spot so it works and then it's slower than wired. I just always keep a cable plugged in now.

I know my 12 model never had any issues. Just doesn’t like my 14 Plus so hopefully you’ll have better luck with that model.

There is a bulletin and a software update for this issue. Ask your dealer

Get the vin and download the window sticker. It will say on that.
