Rockstar working on GTA V disappearing vehicles bug

Rockstar Games has confirmed it is working to fix a bug where players' upgraded vehicles vanish from their garages.
The developer says it has received reports from players about problems with cars and garages in the blockbuster title. Gamers found that when they upgraded vehicles in the game and then completed a mission, the vehicles can do a disappearing act.

"Unfortunately, we do not currently have a workaround to recover a car if it is missing," Rockstar said in a support page about the problem.

"This issue may occur if you drive another character's personal vehicle. We are looking into a fix to prevent this from occurring in the future. In the meantime, please try to avoid parking a car in a garage, driving one already in a garage, or getting in a default vehicle, when playing as a character other than the one with your upgrades."

Other reports about problems with GTA V included a PSN streaming lag issue, and reports of older Xbox 360 consoles freezing during gameplay.



Grand Theft Auto V reached $1 billion in sales in just three days of availability.
