Has anybody found a way to get rid of a Car stuck in the Auto Shop

[DEAD MEAT]

I've had a Car stuck in my Auto Shop for quite some time. I can't deliver it, the Staff can't deliver it. I can't even destroy it, it just reappears. The last time this happened I was able to get the Staff to deliver it ... eventually. R* support has not been any help, so I was wondering if anybody has figured out a work around for when the Game says ... to reboot the Game and refresh catalog inventory (or whatever). I've tried to verify the Game Files a couple of times and that has no effect either.

please let me know if some solution will be found i have this thing either

On Monday I'm going to try and use the "Chat" with a support Dev' option VIA the Support Page. it seems like it might be the best option. Regular Support just sends me emails thanking me for my Bug Report and that they are aware of the issue. If I do find a solution, I'll be sure to return here and relate how the situation got resolved.

my problem was solved btw via simply restarting the game, so maybe its just some time+restart as a fix

I've never had this problem but I don't own a auto shop

[cruste]

some people speculated it is related to discount prices of certain tuning parts like free chrome rims for example, so you could try altering the tuning

Thanks for the suggestion. But the only options after pressing the "E" Key upon approaching the Vehicle are to deliver, or have Staff deliver. I don't have the option to service it any further. Also even though this Vehicle has been serviced and upgraded long ago the checklist appears as all white circles which would seem to imply it either needs to be serviced or has not been.
Thanks again, because I'm willing to try different ways to work around Game Bugs, you never know when something might work. I don't really get frustrated with this Game anymore and see it as a sort of Puzzle to solve. I was able to get it to disappear for a time by starting the delivery and exiting the Game. But alas, like a stray Dog it re-appeared. i even tried to Staff deliver and then go back into the Shop and place my Character in the middle of the lift just to see what might happen when the Game spawned it where I was standing. After a while I went back outside and within seconds I got the "reboot Game message".
I've tried blowing it up. I've tried driving it off the Pier. I've tried taking it out to Sea with a Cargobob. I've tried to get killed with stars and get it impounded. I've tried just about everything I can think of to do to this car ... but it just won't Die (go away). But I'm trying to have some fun with it.

I'm fighting with rockstar on this very issue as we speak.

I haven't had the exact issue but have had issues where I can't even start the service. Luckily for me, it was just that the game wasn't properly refreshing my inventory while I was still in game. So even though a new car was brought in, I couldn't do anything with it until I restarted.

That said, I have seen a few of the workarounds and solutions to some of the other issues, though it mostly blurs together. One key thing to try, move one of your vehicles through all the parking spaces in the garage. It isn't exactly directly related, but it sometimes wakes up the game inventory and makes it properly take stock and may reactivate your delivery/service cars. After you do that, you might restart GTA and see if the game woke up and fixed anything.

Another thing to do is take a mission, any mission, run it quick or just fail it and exit and then come back to your garage. It is different from just restarting GTA and does cause some things to fix. It isn't often what helps but it did for a few people that have the glitch where they can't mod their vehicles in the auto shop.

As to the issue where the car is past the service portion and is ready for delivery but appears to have none of the fixes, some people say that if you deliver it and it had been serviced properly, you get credit and payment still as if it was serviced properly although Sesanta's text will tell you it was done wrong. But also, you might as well just deliver it (If possible) because it will be out of your way and you can get to another car if you like doing them.

In all cases, take screenshots and try to capture video showing your issue, and report it to rockstar support. They might help but also if the problem is clearly defined, they might actually fix it in a patch sometime in the next year.

Thank GOD you did not tell me to hop on one leg and and say hocus pokus ...
And thanks a bunch for the comment, At this point I'm willing to try almost anything, just for the fun of it, and if it works .. the stranger the better. I personally have a Voodoo Doll of Terry Donovan that I use as a last resort for the Bugs in this Game.

P.S. (edit)
As I may have stated in an earlier post, I DID go through Support and waited around 50 minutes to "Chat with a Dev'" after a couple of minutes and I had explained the issue, they told me to hang on and they would take a look. I've done this with them in the past and, no kidding, a real Dev' DID correct an issue. But this time after about 5 or 6 minutes the Chat was closed by them. I'm to old to get pissed at little things, but I felt they could have at least said good bye, or have a nice Day or something.

I had this issue twice, but staff ( very badly ) delivered them for me, no issues since.

I got a car i cannot get rid of either... I cannot sell the shop or modify elements of it also. Hard Glitch.

Another thing that was interfering with my auto shop business for a while was really odd and disconnected. I forgot about the problem because I had a second problem with my cars.

Apparently the exotic exports list and the cars in the bays won't update if you have not done the first yacht mission.

When you buy a yacht, eventually the captain will tell you that he has job opportunities for you and that you should do a mission. I hadn't done that mission and for some reason that made several features not update properly. When I finally did the first yacht mission, suddenly the exports list would update every night finally and I could gain rep every day at the car meet. I have not heard it being related to car service and car modding problems though. Still if you have a yacht and the captain calls you every time you log in, maybe do the mission and see if anything changes.

Perhaps deal with any other business set ups that you might have waiting just in case.

Seriously ...THANK YOU
I can't get on now, but I am methodologically working through your suggestions.
And then seeing if anything fixes it .. I'm actually looking at it like a Puzzle.
There's no way I would not give credit where it's due, and we might just be the next Guy's to figure out something like when that first Guy found out you could play a round of Buzzer Beater (I think that's the one) at the Arena Wars at get rid of Modder Dropped weapons.

Try disabling your antivirus.

For me, when this error happens, I disable the antivirus and when delivering, it concludes normally. (It was even an answer I got from Rockstar support).

It may also be that in your case it doesn't solve it, but try.

Thank you again for all the suggestions. I have tried shuffling around the Cars in the Auto Shop, and moving them all to another Garage and then attempting both self deliver and Staff deliver after both with no change, the Car is still there. I will continue trying the suggested fixes and post the results here. If anybody out there has found a fix or has any suggestions drop a post.
