iPhone 12 overheats in charging tray

I have a 2018 530e. I've noticed that when I use the wireless charging tray, it barely maintains a charge on the phone, and the phone gets extremely hot. Anyone else have similar issues? I usually use wireless charging for the phone at home with no issues. Thanks in advance!

Yes, it has been referenced as a wireless toaster a few times. I have usb cord plugged inside the arm rest as backup.

It's not your car, they all do it. Pretty sure newer models now cool this area with air.
