Carplay vs Bluetooth

When I have the phone in the car, its bluetooth connected. But once I connect the cable, it drops the bluetooth and goes to Carplay. When in car play I cant use the steering wheel controls to guide through the phone and if I use the touch screen it has my contacts blocked out so I cant make a call, unless I dial it by dialpad or call back a recent call.

Anyone have this problem?? Is there some setting I can change to make the phone contacts work as a carplay connection?

Why not just ask Siri to make the call for you. That's the easiest way to access your contacts on Carplay. Press and hold the talk button on your steering wheel to access Siri, then make the request.
