they make changes to the phones and it is GM's fault, okay

mine works fine in a Defender case, just set it on the charger and forget about it
 
To date, it only shut off once on a super hot day and the pop up said it was too hot (can't remember the exact term)
when out fishing and set the phone in the sun, I will pick it up later on and it will say To Hot of Over heated, something like that, so I put the phone in the ice chest..🥶
 
You should let someone know as I just found this Service Bulletin PIT6098B and it appears the DO NOT have a clue of how to fix the problem.
my charger works fine with my i-phone in a defender case,

if your i-phone is not is have you tried to put a 1/4-1/2 inch spacer in the back? Fixes most of them
 
I have a I phone 16 with case. I have noticed that it seems to only charge the phone if it facing a certain way. If it doesn't charge, I just rotate it the other way and it works. I have another mag mount that I usally use as I can see the phone and access the screen if I need to.
my charging pad has a diagram as to which direction to set the phone
 
I just went out and looked. Their is a diagram but it is saying no metal items on pad with phone. Even then this diagram is not very big and at a angle away from you, and you would definitely have to take your eyes off of the road to long for it to be safe!!!
I put it there right before I connect my seat belt and push the garage door button.
since you looked at it, you will never have to look again.
