Still nothing in message centre... also forza hub not updating progress towards tier advancement except in the achievement category...

Just posting an update (which isn't really an update as the status quo hasn't changed)

I just checked the in-game message center again... still no warthog. :/

Hi, I received the DLC code for my Warthog to use in Forza Horizon 3 and redeemed it via the Xbox app, but it hasn't actually appeared as a download item when I go to Manage Game on my Xbox One. I've been playing since early access started and figured it
might just be a pre-release thing, so I waited until today, but there's still no sign of it.

And yes, before anyone tells me, I know that ultimately the car should appear as a Gift item in the Social tab, in-game, but it's not there either.

So, redeemed code without an error, no downloadable item, no in-game gift car.

If I try to redeem the code again then it tells me, quite righty, that the code has already been used, so I know I did complete the redeem successfully.

I had the same Problem.

Checking in again... Still no warthog in the in-game message center.

Quite frankly, I'm getting tired of not seeing it anywhere each and every time play FH3. I'm beginning to feel like nothings really being done about this. Is there a way I can get this resolved sometime in the next 24 hours? (maybe a new warthog redemption
code, perhaps?)

I received the warthog from my in-game message center on the 27th, I just started my game up again and an in-game pop-up said I had a new vehicle in my garage, I checked and it was another warthog, so I now have two warthogs. I'm not complaining about it,
just giving an update. I'll keep both warthogs in my garage until everyone seems to be reporting that they got their warthogs.

Another update, after receiving a warthog from the in-game message center on the 27th and another from an in-game pop-up today, I just closed my game and checked manage games and the warthog dlc appeared under ready to install. I installed it and rebooted
my game and I don't see a third warthog anywhere and no messages in my in-game message center to redeem another one but I'm assuming that's because I already have at least one in my garage. I also checked the "DLC CARS" section of the Autoshow tab from one
of my festival sites and I don't see a warthog redeem there, I only see the 15 cars that have so far come with my ultimate edition. So everyone who redeemed their codes should now check ready to install for the warthog dlc file.

A real update this time! WARTHOG DELIVERED! I checked the ready-to-install section and low-n-behold, a warthog add-on! Once I installed it and loaded the game, I immediately got a pop-up message of a new car. Big thanks, guys! I'm happy now!

Although the warthog file never showed in my manage game section after it disappeared, I paused the game in free roam, went to my social tab - message center inbox - gifts tab, and I had a message that I received the warthog. After accepting the message
I checked my garage and the warthog is there, I'm driving it now. Thanks for resolving the issue for me! I hope it's working for everyone.

I'm having the same problem. The Warthog was a 10MB file titled "Gift Car Halo Warthog".

I pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition bundle with early access on Sept23 and installed the pre-order download. I then redeemed my code from the message which is still in my XBL messages and the 10MB Gift Car Halo Warthog file appeared in my FH3 manage game
files. Then I downloaded the FH3 Demo and played it, the warthog file simultaneously appeared in my manage game files for the demo and the full game pre-order dowload. I then uninstalled the demo and the warthog file was no longer listed under manage game
for the full game pre-order download. I uninstalled the full game and restarted my console and reinstalled the full game pre-order download and the warthog file is not listed under manage game or ready to install. I then reinstalled the demo and the warthog
file doesn't appear under manage game or ready to install for the demo or the full game pre order download. I checked my purchase history and the warthog code redeem does not appear there. I as well suspect that the issue is that the full game has not yet
launched which is scheduled for Sept27. If the warthog file appears for me upon the start of early access Sept23 I'll try to give an update if this issue is still open. If it does not appear I will wait until Sept27 to give an update.

I have gone to manage both the demo and game, and have yet to find it still. I am re-downloading the demo now; is that going to resolve the issue?
