Get QuickZoom Asset Life History form to generate for Car & Truck Depreciation

I'm preparing my 2020 Taxes with TT Home & Business.  I can't seem to get the QuickZoom box to access the Asset Life History to work on the Car & Trucks Expense worksheet. When I click on the QuickZoom to Asset Life History, I get a pop up box that says: Step one: Add Asset Life History, create new copy & I select next.  Step 2: Add Car & Truck Expenses Worksheet for Asset Life History. I create a new copy and enter the make and model of vehicle, click next.  Step 3: Add to schedule C for Car & Truck Expenses Worksheet.  I have 2 options to select.  I select Schedule C (Schedule F) since I'm a Farmer and I use Schedule F.  I then can get a Asset Life History form to pop up but it doesn't display any depreciation information, it's as though I have to enter all the information manually.  I have used this QuickZoom to Asset Life History successfully for all previous years up through Tax year 2018.   I first experienced this same problem while preparing my 2019 Tax  return, but never did anything about it and I'm experiencing it again this year ,Tax year 2020.  Does anybody have a fix for this?  I found this auto populated form very useful and would really like to use it again.  I am able to make the Asset Life History QuickZoom work on the Asset Entry for machinery, not the Car & Truck Expense Worksheets and I use to be able to use the QuickZoom on both.

I have the same question... what happened to our auto Asset Life History?  it's still there for other types of assets.
