Hi all,
So after my battery fault error, the car was just picked up and is being taken to Vegas where they apparently have a small service/center location that is equipped to handle the problem and fix it.
I was reading the owner's manual, and the tow person also was very experienced in towing upwards of million+ dollar cars, his most recent being the last Bugatti Chiron to enter the US and was transported from San Diego to Salt Lake City.
Anyways, he said he has taken 40 something Lucid's as well and transported, so I felt very comfortable with him taking it and letting him do his thing.
After he went on his way, I got numerous Tilt & Shock alerts on my phone saying the car is being towed, and I expected that.
But after opening up the app and looking at it, I can't unlock/lock it (I assume this is because of Towing mode, maybe it disabled app functionality)
But I was reading the owner's manual that says
After securing the vehicle on the transporter or trailer, use the Pilot Panel to select P (Park)
But Tow Truck mode disabled the Parking Brake and keeps the car in Neutral
So does this mean my dude is taking the car with it still in Tow Truck Mode?
I don't want to speculate, but I'm curious what is the 'proper' steps for loading the car, and transported?
Because on one hand it says one thing, but on the other, it says to keep it in Tow Truck Mode until the transportation is completed.
