Didn't work. The only way is to power off and power back on the phone. But even then it only restores the cellular signal for a short time and then it goes all out.
I've noticed that I dont see this problem when I am home or at work. It only does that when I am in the car driving.
Yes, that happens to me too when I'm driving but then I live in a rural area. It's all about the proximity to the cell towers.
I highly dount that. I always drive the same way from home to work. Never had the issue before. The "No Service" will be there until I manually interfere
I had this issue a few years ago on an old iPhone 5S when that was still a thing. Essentially it was the modem chip that was broken somehow. Not saying this is the same problem you are having but I ended up having to replace it.
I would try DFU restoring the phone first though.

Based on the issue you had in your post in Nov last year, I’d look an issue with your car audio or system.
Nice for you to see my previous post
Again, I don't think so. My previous problem with the podcast somehow fixed itself by its own. Maybe an iOS update did it.
Now this "No Service" issue is new and only happened when I updated to iOS 14.
I have the same issue. No signal after updating to iOS 14. Started last night and is still not resolved. Cellular signal (Verizon) present only after restarting the phone and only for about 1-2 minutes. At home, in the car, on the street - does not matter - no signal. I'm unable to make any phone calls. I restarted my phone numerous times, turned cellular on/off, turned Airplane mode on/off, reset Network settings. So far nothing helped.
Are you saying that you never get a signal at all? Even after restarting your phone?
In my case, restarting my phne usually solves the issue, but it's not practical. When I am at home or work, I do not face this issue. It's is only when I am on the road. A minute after I enter the office or home my signal gets back. It is very annoying.

Your podcast thing wasn't with the show 99 per cent invisible was it?
Not sure what you mean. But I doubt the "No Service" issue is not related to the podcast app or the car itself, since the problem happened with another car and not playing podcast.
Even if the issue might be relate to the cellualr towers shifting as I drive, how come I never had the issue with iOS 13 and earlier?
What do you mean they can't do anything? It's their fault. I have a defective phone because of the update. I believe they can fix it with an update as well. I live in Saudi Arabia, and I haven't investigated the matter to see if it is common or not.
Sorry completely off topic. I remember listening to a story about how listening to a particular podcast via Bluetooth would kill the car stereo on some model cars. The other referenced an issue you were previously having with a listening to a podcast in a car and I wondered if you had experienced this issue.
