Confirmed.
Confirmed for 14w33a. I'll need to pause my entire project because of this.
That's why I posted this, I realized it and had to stop the project that you can see in the background of the picture for the moment.
Confirmed for latest snapshots and 1.8-pre1.
Confirmed for latest pre-releases and 1.8.
Still present in 1.8.7.
Still present in 1.8.9 AND snapshot 15w51b. Could this one be fixed please ?
Present in 16w04a.
Yep, it's still here in 1.9.2. It's going to force me to create thousands of command blocks if we can't fix it. Please take a look at it and see what you can do.
Confirmed for 16w42a
Confirmed for 1.11.2
Confirmed for 1.12
Confirmed for 1.12.2
Please fix this issue quickly!
Fixing this issue would give us a lot of possibilities.
It's now impossible to clear just one slot of a chest minecart or just replace one of it's slots.
using entitydata to set the items actually clears the entire inventory of the chest minecart.
This is fine for me. I can wear those with ease.

Error:
The target does not have the specified slot
for command:
/replaceitem entity @e[type=chest_minecart,distance=..5] container.0 minecraft:dirt
one way to achieve the same:
{ Slot:0b,id:"minecraft:dirt",Count:1b}/data merge entity @e[type=chest_minecart,limit=1,distance=..5] {Items:[
]}
1. Don’t edit your comment over and over again, use the preview button.
2. That’s not a suitable workaround, as that will remove the inventory it already had.
Confirmed for 18w16a
Well this would be the best workaround for that bugg
*
execute as @e[type=minecraft:chest_minecart,limit=1,nbt=!{Items:[{Slot: 0b}]}] run data merge entity @s {Items:[{Slot:0b,id:"minecraft:dirt",Count:1b}]}*
That’ll clear the whole inventory.
Well it doesn't i swear you dont even tried because i use it in a datapack and it works ^^
But if you think it Clears the Inventory tell me why?
There is no reason why the whole Inventory should be cleared
after this command because i just Modify Slot:0b (the first slot)
/data merge with lists always clears the list; there's one exception, and that's the villager inventory (which is a separate bug).
And I just checked.
You're right i tried it on a World where i have a datapack that fills the chests permanently thats why i dont had empty chests after merging something
confirmed for 18w22a
I'm still having this problem on bedrock edition.
