Vehicles will de-spawn usually at random intervals. You can log out of a server with your vehicle(Well hidden), and log on the next morning and it will be gone. I think it may be the regular 2 hour(or so) server restarts(for loot). I have even walked a distance away from a vehicle and come back to find it missing, whilst being the only person on the server. I have also experienced driving a vehicle, when a server does its regular restart, being logged out. Only when I log back in I am set back where I last got into the vehicle. But the vehicle be where I was when the server restarted. I cant explain why the bug is doing what its doing. I was used to only having to worry about losing my vehicle at the weekly update, but now every couple of hours....

Event Timeline
I second this, happened to me and my friends about two weeks ago. We were driving for some time, got out at some houses and loot them, get back in and drove for another 2-3 minutes. We got the message "No information received for 5, 6, 20, 30 seconds" (It skipped seconds, not count them one by one, fast) and all of us got booted of the server. We were at the houses where we last left the vehicle and after 15 minutes run we found the car where it last was when it disconnected us.
Hello TheDarkAce13 and thank you for the report.
We are aware of these issues and they are scheduled for a fix. The primary ticket for the issue with player character appearing where it has boarded the vehicle if server was restarted while the character was in the vehicle can be found here https://feedback.bistudio.com/T119210.

There was also another issue topped onto that. And is that if your not in the vehicle during a server reset, then the vehicle itself and everything inside it will de-spawn. If you leave a vehicle overnight it will not be there the next day. Im not sure if that issue is being worked out as well, but I thought id include it. Because I believe it is an even bigger issue than the other bug.
Thank you.
We are currently looking into several issues regarding to the vehicles and will look into this one as well.

Hey,
I have 2 tents and had 2 cars (bus and V3S), me and my friends found them both, we found the glitch with desync when close to eachother, but that's another story. Both of these cars were gone the next day even though noone had been there, all guns, food meds and all were there the day after, but both cars vanished.
(1 of them was next to 1 of the tents, the other a little further away)
