Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Update Finally Fixes Coconut Mall
The latest update for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has finally fixed an issue with the Coconut Mall stage that fans have been complaining about since the launch of the DLC. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is adding 48 new tracks as part of the Booster Course DLC, which fans can either purchase outright or receive access to via a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription.

Once the player reached the end of the track, these cars would move forward or backward, acting as an annoying obstacle for the end of the race.

The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Wave 2 is now available and the official Nintendo of America Twitter page has announced that there is also an update that fixes the issue with Coconut Mall.
