I don't understand this error, nor do I know how to fix my script. I tried finding ways to fix this for nearly 3 hours and got nothing. Any help please?

Full Error: Model:SetPrimaryCFrame() failed because no PrimaryPart has been set, or the PrimaryPart no longer exists. Please set Model.PrimaryPart before using this.

01local test = part.CFrame
02 
03car:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(test)
04 
05local pos = test * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(180), 0)
06 
07car:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pos)

You are using Model:SetPrimaryPartCFrame() before setting the PrimaryPart. Models have a PrimaryPart property, which you need to set before calling methods like SetPrimaryPartCFrame and MoveTo() on the model.

01local test = part.CFrame
02 
03car.PrimaryPart = primaryparthere
04 
05car:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(test)
06 
07local pos = test * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(180), 0)
08 
09car:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pos)
10 
11 
12car:MakeJoints()

You need to replace "primaryparthere" with a part that the rest of the model will use as a basis for positioning. Preferably, this is a part at or near the center. I usually set an invisible part in the center as the PrimaryPart.

If the car is cloned from elsewhere, you can set its PrimaryPart in the Property editor on Studio. Sparks 534 — 4y
