Anyone had success in a lemon law case against Lucid?
I am in Dallas and the lawyer I consulted said that he has no experience dealing with Lucid. Its hard for him to estimate legal fees in such case.
He agrees that the car is a lemon. Its still in service for a recall related issue. Today is the 50th day of the car in service.
I want to know if Lucid did a buyback or they replaced the car? Did they pay legal fees too and if so, what dollar amount in legal was covered by Lucid?

You would be best to speak to Lucid directly about your car and see what can be done. The moment you engage a lawyer they won’t speak to you.

Going to a lawyer with ANY company should be an absolute last resort. Should always try to resolve the issues directly with them.
 
On the Audi E-tron forum, there was mention of lawyers who specialize in lemon law cases. It sounded like they got results. Hiring a lawyer to discuss your options is never a bad idea. Whether you want to take the nuclear option and have the lawyer contact Lucid is a whole different question.

Edit: I was just looking through the various lemon law threads there, and it appears no one got much traction until they contacted Audi directly.

Simple then. Just google lemon lawyer and you’ll be given plenty of bottom feeders.

In all honesty, you just need to see what the criteria is for your state and if you think you meet that then you can speak to Lucid directly and present your case.

Well its always easy to take pot shots at lawyers, but my take away from reading about others' experiences was that lawyers who specialized in lemon laws brought a lot of experience and expertise to the table. I don't care either way--I'm just relating what I read.
 
If you really want to go that route, contact Lucid first. As soon as you involve a lawyer their options are strictly limited.
I reached out to the customer service team and they told me to speak with the sales team. The sales team is now telling me to talk to the service team. Both of them are ccd on the email.
I m really getting frustrated at this point. I feel i m hitting a wall here.

Having been through a lemon law case (not with Lucid), I can assure the process is extremely slow. Also, you need to check the laws in your state because you have to give the manufacturer a specified amount of time to fix/resolve the issue. Typically if it cannot be fixed they will buy the car back from you; however, if you involve an attorney you might not get the outcome you are expecting because prior to the lawyer they will be more willing to make the customer happy and just resolve the problem. I can tell you in my case I was extremely happy though it took several months to complete and this was AFTER the car was in the shop for nearly 4 months. I ended up buying my Lucid as a result of that car. Hang in there it is extremely frustrating and it doesn't matter what manufacturer you're dealing with.

Sounds like you need to escalate to the general manager of that facility.

I had a successful lemon law on my Tesla MX 2 years ago. Tesla kept on asking more chances to repair but the issue kept on coming back. They said no to the buyback but when I got this law firm involved they agreed to buy it back at the purchase price.
Their legal fees were around $10k. Tesla paid half and remaining came from the buyback.
I contacted the same law firm but they have not heard or worked with lucid before. Which seems to be a big factor in calculating legal fees.

Lol. Same I bought lucid after lemon law with Tesla on non functioning falcon doors. With lawyer it took close to 3 months but he was positive that Tesla always buyback, which did end up happening. My case was his 4th buyback with Tesla that year.

The best way to do that will be through the customer care number? I can try calling it tomorrow. Usually takes multiple attempts to actually get to someone.
The roadside assistance is quick but the customer service is a hit or miss.

Just be cautious with the lawyer as I was able to get the full purchase price of my vehicle back after driving it for over 5 years without an attorney. If you've been through it before you already know and I'm sorry you're dealing with this especially with your Lucid. I love my Lucid and I hope I never have to go through that process again. Best of luck man, I hope you get it resolved quickly.
 
I would escalate internally first, but if you end up choosing to do it the hard way (or your hand is forced somehow), you can also arbitrate using the BBB Auto Line, likely saving money.
