    Multiseat is pretty buggy, but try just reloading (CTRL+R) the car next time, it worked for me. Saves you a lot of time

    The top right app selector is merely an informative message, so you know which player's bindings are being displayed. You cannot modify the game behaviour with it.

    It is possible that one of the users, probably the one with the keyboard, is hitting the "TAB" key to seat in another vehicle. This means that, at that point, 2 users will be seated in the same vehicle. That user would need to hit TAB again until he's sitting in the original vehicle again.

    As i said, there was 2 CONTROLLER on the same car, as this was my computer i was always playing with the keyboard and i tab to the car that hasnt any controller bind to it, i was controlling a different car with the keyboard than the car that was controlled by 2 ps4 controller, so there was a car without anyone binded to it, if i tab my keyboard onto this car then theres still the last car i had before tabing that is not binded, so basically, if i tabed to the car with 2 controller on it we were 3 on the same car, i try to explain myself the best i can and i hope you understand well cause i mainly speak french , thanks for the answer btw!!

    Ah, I thought you mean 2 controllers... not excluding keyboard. Understood. That shouldn't happen. It's the first time I read about an issue like this. You can try binding the "Switch to next vehicle" to a controller button. Then use the button to switch the user of that controller to a different car.
