Had you been playing for an extended period of time when this happened?

This sounds like an exact description of what happened to me when I played for several hours and ran into the crash box entity.

After an extended play session the game will flash your screen black several times before spawning an entity (appearing as a black censor box that can be seen through walls) that follows you around and will crash the game if you touch it; I've been calling it the "Touch Grass Demon" since my spouse referred to it as such lol.

"Mmmm tasty drives."

-Dr. Kel, probably.

Update: found it!

Not sure how but I think the Ariral ATV refill event was bugged because I used the hook to climb the border fence and found it with about 300 gas and -700 HP near the invisible map border, it was a bitch to get back over the fence but I did manage and got it repaired.

Still no idea why the save menu reset vehicle option didn't work but I got my ATV back so I'm not super concerned.

Just to clarify I did restart the game and re-download/replace the game files but the issue persists and I must now hoof it everywhere which takes up a lot more time.

I parked my ATV outside the garage at the bottom of the ramp so it could get sun to recharge and it disappeared. I tried locating it with the command and I reached the edge fence of the map before seeing any sign of it. I also tried the reset vehicle option in the save menu but it did nothing as far as I can tell, compass indicator for vehicle still points off into the distance beyond the border fence.
