Need for speed Rivals DLC not working

★★ Novice

I purchased a couple of the car packs for NFS: Rivals, and they worked... Until I got a new computer. I downloaded the game on my new computer, and it acted as if I had never purchased any of the DLC. Try as I might, I can't get the DLC to actually activate on my new computer.

They all display as installed, yet after two uninstalls and reinstalls, they fail to show.
Before the first reinstall, when I ran it in offline mode, it worked, so I think it's something with the save files. However, I tried all that I can, including a solution for re-syncing the save files, but have had no success.
What is also strange is that when I first load into the game, it displays my DLC car that I was using last, but then right before it finishes loading, it switches away to one of the default starting cars.

 

--Edit--

Ok, so when I play in offline mode, everything is as it should be. I have all my cars and DLC. Whenever I go into online mode, it loads the car that I was just using, but then it resets it to the first car you can use, and then eliminates the DLC and Overwatch car from my garage. So the problem lies in some form of authentication between my account and my saves/purchases.

 

--Edit-- 
It's working now. Once I went out onto the road and came back to a hideout, it reset so my DLC is all back and everything is working again. Probably just a random glitch when I switched computers.

All your DLCs are listed on your Origin Account (in the Origin Client.)

I guess you just have to install them on the new system.

 

Open Origin, click on Need for Speed Rivals and on the [ i ] symbol.

Scroll down, you should see the list of all your add-ons and Bonuses.

Verify their status, install them if necessary.

 

Please let us know how it goes - Thanks.
