    Auxiliary Power Supply Fault

    Just following up on the above. Again, shoutout to Victoria M and the Houston Lucid service center - I was so happy with their proactiveness, timeliness and communication. They really did a great job and I'm glad to have this wonderful car back again! @JoshG , they did have to replace the...

    Auxiliary Power Supply Fault

    Wanted to follow up on my message from above. First, the eclipse was amazing. Drove out in a family member's car, and we were worried about cloud cover but the high, thin clouds actually made the viewing better in my opinion and thinned out at just the right time. So cool! Anyway, wanted to...

    Auxiliary Power Supply Fault

    We just had this exact same error message happen to our Lucid Air GT which is bit over a year and a half old. FWIW, we also had just charged it to 100% (for the first time in quite a while) using the Lucid Home Charger. Sadly the reason we had charged it to 100% was to drive it west to see the...

    FEATURE OTA Update 2.1.52

    I agree with pretty much all the other comments here, both that this is a nice update, but I also am a bit surprised, as some of the other comments have noted, that they haven't tackled what feels like some "low hanging fruit" that's higher priority to most owners. E.g. the HomeLink menu...

    How the Cybertruck charges at existing Superchargers - could Lucid do something like this?

    Hey folks, not an electrical engineer so was hoping someone could explain this better to me. With Tesla opening their Supercharger network to more companies and as it looks like NACS will "win out" in the US, one thing that has been mentioned in these forums is that the existing Superchargers...

    2.1.33 Navigation Audio

    Glad I'm not the only one, I thought I was going crazy. For me it's not just that it's "scratchy lo-fi audio", but 95% of the time for me it's super low volume so I can barely hear it. Best way to describe it is that it sounds like a "loose speaker wire". That is, I thought it was just much...

    Lucid Air Pure joins Car and Driver’s 10Best for 2024

    This really is great news. I'm so rooting for Lucid because the car is just so stellar. I've said before, I'm the last person anyone would think of as a "car guy", but as someone who normally hates driving, to say I actually often enjoy driving in the Lucid is huge. Congrats to the Lucid team!

    Vehicle to Home

    Sure, 100%. You need to get city/utility approvals to do anything remotely substantial to a home where I live. But the point I and others are making (and which you also point out with the "It's exactly the same as using a battery pack as a backup" sentence) is there is nothing special or unique...

    Vehicle to Home

    Also really looking forward to V2H capability. ERCOT in Texas just announced that they'd resort to rolling blackouts again if we get another deep freeze, and last time it happened we were out of power for 5 days in sub-freezing weather (and it's not like TX homes are really built for the cold)...

    How is creep mode supposed to work?

    Just thought I'd follow up since I've had the car about a year since this thread started. Creep mode doesn't work like an ICE car, but now that I'm used to it, I think it's fine and I totally understand why it's implemented the way it was. That is, I love one pedal driving now with "Hold" and...

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    I thought the same thing: I had the "signet surge" issue on an outbound trip, and on the return the same charger just refused to charge at all. So came on the forums to see if there were any maps that say which charger models exist at which EA locations. But then I hit another thread here (would...

    My Road Trip Experiences

    Not sure why Internet forums always seem to devolve into this kind of "shouting past each other", but I think that what you and vaznayak said regarding speed is basically the same thing: traffic conditions largely dictate your speed. That is, in Texas, there are large stretches of highway where...

    Lucid Air Sunshade, Glass Canopy — Now Available

    Thanks for everyone who recommended these sunshades. Got mine today - they're great, and make a big difference in the Texas heat. Super easy to install/uninstall, and they look great.

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    Obviously there will be tons of changes in the charging space in the coming years, but regardless of your thoughts toward Tesla (or Musk) you really have to hand it to them to see how prescient (and correct) they were in realizing how critical charging infrastructure would be, and building out...

    Car Washing...what are your tips and tricks

    I got my car ceramic and ppf coated with xpel. I second the recommendations for the Xpel ceramic boost and I also use the Xpel detail spray (though, if anything, can't really tell the difference between them or why I should use one or the other - ceramic boost alone works great). For regular...
