Description

While navigating in CarPlay, the more distant labels toward the top of the map are illegible because of insufficient [pitch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_%28typewriter%29) (letter spacing). See “Gest St”, “Elsinore Ave”, “Monastery St”, “Celestial St”, and “Eggleston Ave” in the screenshots below:

The labels are fine in NavigationViewController on the phone, regardless of [pitch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_principal_axes#Transverse_axis_%28pitch%29) (tilt), probably because only left-side content insets are only applied in CarPlay by default.

Reproduces in v0.35.0 but not v0.34.0.
