Bought the DLC Bundle, the problem continues! I can't access the new cars, not even the airport, once I shut the game down. No f*cking fix yet.

Just to make sure this issue doesn't go unnoticed, and to try and help someone, here's a list of all the fixes that other users of this forum found out. They worked previously, not for everyone, but for some. So, give it a go. 😕mileyhappy:Fix 11. Run Origin2. Enter the game. If you can't see the new cars, quit the game (do not quit Origin)3. Go to directory C:\ProgramData\Origin (this is a hidden folder); inside this directory, delete the file local.xml4. Enter the game again and see if the new cars are there.Fix 21. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need for Speed(TM) Most Wanted\__Installer2. In this directory delete the files installerdata.xml and installlog.txt3. Enter the game again and see if the new cars are there. PS: You can try fix 1 and 2 at the same time to see if it helps. Fix 31. Enter the game2. Go to EasyDrive > Store3. Once prompt to enter the Store, press ENTER4. A revolving white circle will appear while the Store is loaded; quickly double tap the ESC key.5. The new cars should appear, if not, repeat steps 1 to 4 until it works.Fix 4Reinstall the game. This one will work for sure, for you have to do it everytime you want the DLC content.I've tried deleting a few folders and files from the game directory and have Origin download them again, but to no avail. The "vehicles" folder should fix the issue, but deleting it and downloading a new one doesn't help. I can't decrypt any of the files, so the content of each one is unknown. If you could just delete part or all the DLC-related files, maybe that would help.To EA: I hope you guys are paying attention to this and ACTUALLY finding a **bleep** fix.

I just bought this for PC as well. I cannot access ANY of the items in this DLC. When I try to click my username in the Origin interface, it says the servers are overwhelmed. Because of this, I cannot access ANY of my DLC and the game puts me at the wrong savepoint. PLUS any time there is a problem connecting to Origin servers, NONE of my purchased DLC shows up. I know this because I am saved in the Hennessey vehicle, yet I come up to a yellow Porsche with none of my upgrades installed. Though, my custom license plate shows up, so that shows the game connected at some point. If we PAY for DLC, it should show up whether we are connected to Origin or not. I paid for the software. I believe the manner in which DLC is tied to the online accessibility of Origin servers should be looked at from a Class Action standpoint. If we BOUGHT the content, it should be unlocked and available at all times. Period. Origin, you need to get this fixed.

To solve DLC problem on PC You should:1) delete folder: {windows drive}:\ProgramData\Origin\LocalContent\Need for Speed(TM) Most Wanted2) restart Origin3) wait till origin verify game data4) run NFS:MW5) Go to shop6) Wait till game ask to press [Enter] to go into Origin Store7) Check if You have DLC bought/installed8) Get back to Game World9) Cars should be available in EasyDriveThis solution worked for me and 2 more people, so im pretty sure it will work for You alsoPlease, hit XP if this solved You problem

So annoying that EA continues to release DLC and still no repair 😕mileymad:

I see the topic was split in two. There's no real reason for that, as all DLC packs either work, or they don't.Anyway, for those who can't acess the cars in multiplayer mode, just check the requirements for each car. They are NOT unlocked based on your SpeedLevel or SpeedPoints, they are unlocked based on a certain requirement.If you can access the cars in singleplayer, there is no issue whatsoever. This thread is for people who actually can't acess the content, either singleplayer or multiplayer, not for those who can't understand that to unlock a car in multiplayer, you have to meet a goal, and that goal is stated in the driver progress menu.----------------------------Just saw eanajat new posts.I can't access any of the cars. When I first bought the Deluxe Bundle, I was prompted with all the new cars in the EasyDrive menu, except the Most Wanted ones, which I have to beat. I beat the M3 GTR, so that one has become available too in the Change Car menu. But once the game was shut down, puff all DLC cars are gone. It's like I have never bought the DLC packs. The new cars don't show up in the Car Change menu, and if I try to access any of the new Most Wanted races, it says "Buy XXX to unlock this car" (or something alonge those lines).The airport is simply locked by a red barrier. If I approach it, it says "go to store to buy", I go there, check that I own all the packs, then come back and the barrier is still there. I can't acess the new area, can't have the new cars, can't participate in the new races.

Same applies for me re-downloaded the whole game the other day to find I no longer have access to the NFS Heroes, Terminal Velocity and Movie Legends. All which I have payed for and say they are on my account.
Please get this fixed I many people here have payed money for these DLC's and just get the stock game instead.
This bug has been going on for too long.

The 1-year1-new-NFS policy has totally fxxked up NFS in fact, making them have no more resources to deal with bugs and optimization of any latest NFS games. Just give a quick glance of the countless fails in Rivals ...(facepalm)

For me DLC just occasionally failed to appear. It would appear again after I restarted game.

You can cut out the first 4 steps, so no XP for you :P
Now here's an actual challenge: Try this in the latest version of Origin without crashing it. If you do so, tell the rest of us...
