Frequent Freezes/Crashes When Filtering Garage Cars

FM2023 (Steam/PC version) frequently freezes/crashes when I use the filter menu to display a selected subset of cars in my garage.

It seems especially prone to freezing/crashing when I select a combination of multiple filters.

Steps to reproduce:
→ main menu
→ cars
→ my cars
→ filter
→ select a combination of division, drivetrain, and/or PI-class to filter on
freeze/crash.

The game stops responding to any inputs from my controller, mouse, & keyboard.

The forza_steamworks_release_final.exe shows “not responding” status in Windows Task Manager.

A few moments later, Windows (11) pops up a notification box saying: “This application is not responding. Do you want to end this process?

I click “end process,” the game shuts down & returns me to the Windows desktop, and I restart the game - only for the same thing to frequently happen again if I try to use the garage filter again.

Sometimes filtering works fine with no problems, but I’d guesstimate it fails/crashes nearly half the time I attempt to filter, so it’s basically a coin-toss.
I don’t recall ever encountering this problem before the 20th anniversary Fujimi Kaido update.

(I’ve tried the My Game is Not Launching or is Crashing on PC troubleshooting steps, and the issue still frequently occurs.)

Thank you for reporting that you tried the Forza Support article. Could you also confirm that you’ve submitted a ticket at Forza Support? It’s important that they keep track of crashing issues, and may be able to look at additional details.
