Interesting, I only have the basic sync system without nav on my trucks since 2009 and never had a problem charging iphones (3G, 4S, 5). I can see how it may not charge an ipad very fast as they pull 2 amps if they can get it.
I just recently added a bunch of 12v plugs and usb plugs inside my truck camper. It doesn't directly help you but may be another option.
USB and 12V plugs
Only basic Sync here too. Maybe they changed the parts between 2011 and 2012. Mine will charge with the screen on and listening to music on bluetooth. It will not charge when also using navigation; this seems to be the point where it draws more than 0.9amps. Apple charger does fine with everything on and drawing amps.
Thanks for the link. Gives me an idea if what I have to do to get that 12v plug inside the trailer.
