But I use the usb C port on the dash to connect my phone (Pixel6) for Android Auto mainly for navigation Google maps. And it does quickly charge my phone. This is what I use ... https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TSHB8LJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'm sure the reason is the temperature of the phone. All fast charging is forced cooling
