I got hit with the error code 4001000, I couldn't locate a chat w EA option at the time so I saw a forum post on EA's website I tried one of the suggestions to overwrite my online saved data, and or saved game data I did that only thing with that was although we are prompted to enter our garage to save progress, especially when servers are shutting down, you would've thought that the game was keeping accurate progress due to this frequent garage visits we make while playing game, but unfortunately for me after I did this the game took me back to an old save from July 2020 and my most recent saves were from Sept 25 2020, which meant for me all my most recent accomplishments like finishing the entire game, and most recent car transactions not to mention builds were lost I had well over 100++ cars all the highest dollar value cars, I even had cars that I purchased twice numerous times for different builds, so I wouldn't have to share parts between cars and I swear guys I acquired all of this with no game deception just countless hours and days, weeks, months of grinding doing laps to earn, heck I developed carpal tunnel from this, and it's all gone I'm back to 60 cars that aren't even fixed, do you know how many engines I bought over 600,000 bucks the time it takes, not to mention my custom wraps I had a very impressive stable of cars my friends, I have numerous games but none that completely consumed my life and time like NFS Heat I'm completely broken up and I'm a grown man that feel like he just lost a parent, so I saw this post and was praying to GOD to bring my cars back nothing man I can't even play anymore or bear to look at my PS4 and I'm probably forever done with NFS my favorite game, movie I'm just lost millions and millions of bucks on builds and cars and time from my personal life I can never get back. I pray someone knows another way I'd pay you for my recovery of my lost cars!!
