Several Battlefield 6 challenge and assignment trackers are unreliable right now, with the Repair Vehicles objective frequently failing to display progress. Players report entire matches of active tank and vehicle repairs that don’t move the meter, and some class assignments gated behind repair totals won’t complete even after repeated attempts. The development team has acknowledged progression issues at launch, and “Repair Vehicles” is specifically called out as a progress bar that may not update when repairs are made.

What’s affected (at a glance)

Launch-day progression issues aren’t limited to repairs. Multiple objectives can miscount, fail to update, or have unclear requirements. Here are the recurring patterns:

  • Repair Vehicles progress can remain stuck or update inconsistently.
  • Some class and initiation assignments that include repair totals may not be completed.
  • Other objectives show incorrect requirements or misclassify vehicle types, causing stalled progress.

First, eliminate simple misreads

Before assuming the tracker is broken, make sure your actions match how the game awards credit:

  • Use the Repair Tool on damaged friendly vehicles. Stand close enough for the tool to engage and keep it active until you see repair ticks.
  • Repair meaningful damage. If a vehicle is near full health, short bursts may not add enough to move percentage-based goals.
  • Stay to the end of the match. Some objectives tally on match completion, not mid-round.
  • Confirm the assignment is unlocked. Many challenges only track after you reach the required overall level or have the assignment set as active.

If you’re doing all of the above and the bar still won’t move, you’re likely running into the known progression issue.

Workarounds to try for Repair Vehicles not tracking

  • Finish a fresh match after restarting the game. Fully close the client, relaunch, and complete a single match while focusing on vehicle repairs.
  • Repair within your squad context. Healing or repairing while working directly with squadmates appears to register more consistently for some players.
  • Stick to conventional ground vehicles. Separate launch issues are misclassifying helicopters in certain vehicle assignments; focusing on tanks, IFVs, and light ground vehicles reduces edge cases.
  • Concentrate repairs on one heavily damaged vehicle. Large, continuous repair bursts are more likely to push a frozen bar to update after the match.
Note: These are mitigations, not guarantees. Progress can still fail to display even when the game has counted actions, and some assignments may be genuinely blocked until an update.

Other known challenge/assignment issues at launch

Objective Observed behavior What to try
Repair Vehicles (challenge/assignment steps) Progress bar may not update when repairs are made; some users see no completion despite sustained repairs. Restart the client, complete a full match, focus repairs on a single damaged ground vehicle, work with squadmates.
Resupply teammates with the Supply Pouch Resupply actions don’t increment progress reliably. Perform resupplies within your squad during a full match; restart between attempts if stuck.
Use Vehicle Supply Crate Using the crate may not move the tracker. Trigger the action multiple times in a single match after a fresh restart.
Weapon Expert (Unit Challenge) Description and actual requirement don’t match; the effective goal differs from what’s written. Expect a different in-match kill requirement than the on-screen text; check after matches for unexpected progress.
Land Vehicle Expert (assignment) Helicopters are incorrectly counted as ground vehicles. Focus on clearly ground-based vehicles to avoid misclassification issues.
Vehicle Challenge 1 Helicopter actions are not counted properly. Use tanks and wheeled vehicles until a fix lands.

How to tell if the bar is frozen versus truly blocked

There are two failure modes in play:

  • Display-only freeze: The in-match or post-match bar doesn’t move, but the game silently records progress. You may see a sudden jump after a restart or on a later match summary.
  • Tracking failure: The game isn’t recording your actions at all, so you’ll see no change across multiple full matches.

If you complete two or three full matches with sustained repairs and the tracker doesn’t budge—even after restarting—you are most likely hitting the tracking failure and will need to wait for an update.

Practical repair scenarios that have registered more consistently

  • Ride shotgun with a tank or IFV your squad is supporting. Repair after each engagement when the vehicle retreats behind cover.
  • Prioritize vehicles with heavy sustained damage to build repair totals in longer bursts.
  • Avoid hopping between many vehicles for quick top-offs; stick with one asset to maximize continuous repair time.

When to stop troubleshooting

If you’ve:

  • Restarted the game,
  • Completed multiple full matches,
  • Focused repairs on clearly damaged ground vehicles, preferably with squadmates,

And you still see zero movement, you’ve done what you can. At that point, switch to other objectives that are tracking correctly and return to repairs after a patch. If you want to report your experience, use the Battlefield 6 bug report forum and include the exact challenge or assignment name, your platform, and whether you completed full matches.

The repair tracker issues are on the developers’ radar and sit alongside a handful of other miscounted or misdescribed goals at launch. Until a fix rolls out, the most reliable path is to limit edge cases (helicopters, brief top-offs), focus on sustained repairs to squad-affiliated ground vehicles, and restart the client if the bar appears stuck. If your progress still won’t move after several full matches, it’s safe to set it aside and revisit once an update lands.
