While valid points, I have 19" wheels and this blowout was from some kind of small debris right in the middle of the tread. I think the seal kit might've let me at least limp home. But yeah, on all my other cars, the punctures have been on the shoulder of course. And the weirdest one of all...

Well I definitely have some lessons learned from the experience. For one, as long as I'm in the Chicago area, I should have the car towed home, so the mobile service van can come to me. That should help cut down the turnaround time. The van will come to homes only, and my limited experience...

IDK about that.....maybe my luck had just taken a turn for the worse.....or maybe there's more crap on the roads. But I've had probably 3 or 4 flats between all my cars, with one on the Lucid just this weekend, since 2020. Whereas before that, I think I had 1 flat since college! The rest were...

Where can you get this? I just checked the Lucid website....because I was bit by a flat tire this weekend.....with my 3yr old niece in tow! But I don't see anything available anymore. I'm really perturbed this fancy vehicle left me stranded with a kid due to some minor road debris I didn't even...

I've been chasing this down on my '23 AP also, for the past few months. The car was in for it's annual checkup just a few months ago. I complained to Lucid about it, primarily when we thought it was a CarPlay problem. They dismissed it as an Apple issue, since all Lucid modules were up to date...

As of today, after all the updates, this still happens to my 2023 Pure. It's less than 50% of the time now, but still very annoying. Looks very stupid from the outside, especially when others might be admiring the car, and I can't get in, LOL. The MOST annoying thing though, is that when the...

Why it's true Elon and Tesla have the capacity and motive to be very petty. It also makes sense that they could use the revenue from anywhere right now, and would gladly allow Lucid on the network, unfettered. My hesitation would be with how stable and seamless that access works, considering...

To tangent a bit, "with cause" is also used by companies to terminate when employment objectives and performance goals are not met. Either realistically or fictitiously. I say fictitiously, because it was recently revealed at my former employer, that they would put multiple people on...

Gosh I hope it's not anyone from Stellantis!!!! 🤪 It's a bit shocking but honestly not too surprising to hear. The last interview I saw with Peter, he seemed a little "burned out" even though he said he loves the constant on the go schedule. I agree at this point the company could use a fresh...

Ironically, Siri seems to work better (LOL) and the voice is creepy, so I don't use Lucid Assistant.

Yeah, I do. I've lost count over the years how many Xers and Millennials have said to me, or near me, "ohhh gosh I would DIE before being seen driving a minivan." Or variants thereof. And what are SUVs but rectangles on wheels? I'll say that the Gravity looks NICE, and has a nice familial...

I was there! Sort of. It took so long to park and get inside, it was 1:30 by time we made it back to the Lucid area, and we never saw the group. Honestly, I thought the event would be more substantial, with a little section for us to interact with and sit in the Gravity. Nevertheless, I was...

I'm going to be controversial and say Yes, the Gravity is a lot like a minivan. Many many SUVs and crossovers today, ARE very similar to minivans. They're just missing the sliding doors. For whatever reason, minivans are vehicle-non-grata these days with families. Even though THE thing they need...

This has been happening almost all winter so far on my 2023 Pure. It was purticularly bad when I drove the car to work yesterday, and it sat all day in 25 degree weather. The drive home was noisy, windy, and very cold on the left side of my head. Had to turn the cabin heat up to 80! I will...

Yes, repeatedly. I'm exhausted resetting and re-pairing at this point. It works great briefly, then degrades again.
