Forza Horizon 5<\/a> has been a critical success for the Forza racing series, developer Playground Games, and the Xbox platform in 2021. Since the game’s release, many players have reported on a variety of bugs and glitches<\/a> affecting gameplay, game features and other miscellaneous issues, including server instability.<\/p>\n

Recently, the developer has reported that they won’t be resolving a known convertible bug anytime soon in an update to a FAQ support page. This decision was met with criticism from the Forza community online for ignoring the game’s problem.<\/p>\n

Forza Horizon 5 set precedent, being the first game that allows players to remove the roof off convertible cars. Unfortunately, specific convertible cars from various manufacturers, including Honda, Mazda and Mercedes-Benz, are experiencing issues where players cannot remove the top.<\/p>\n

The specific cars listed on the FAQ page are the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Honda S2000<\/li>\n
  • 2016 Mazda MX5 2016<\/li>\n
  • 2013 Mazda MX5 2013<\/li>\n
  • Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    As a result, this leaves only four convertible cars unaffected by the known bug – 2018 Ferrari Portofino, Mercedes AMG One, 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster, and the 2019 McLaren Z20S Spider.<\/p>\n

    The fact that the developer has listed the bug affecting specific convertible cars below the “Won’t fix or by Design” section on the FAQ page, has been met with confusion and frustration from the Forza community.<\/p>\n

    In a post on the Forza subreddit<\/a>, racing fans discussed this known issue as to why it won’t be resolved by the developer. One fan has provided a minor solution for the problem until the next patch update arrives.<\/p>\n
