As reported in Electrek.

Unfortunately, this might not be an isolated incident about Lucid's customer service quality. Please see the screen shots of emails below regarding a different problem. I contacted Lucid's 800 numbers because Millbrae just wouldn't get back to me. This service advisor, based in Newark, asked me...

My car's backup/forward/surround view cameras stopped working yesterday. I called Millbrae's service department this morning and reported this issues as well as some other annoying problems. (e.g., starting a call or playing music to discover the car on its own set the volume to the maximum...

News just came out today. BTW, take a look at https://motherfrunker.ca/fsd/ for some background material.

Good point. It will be interesting to see if anything happens to the Lucid after a week or two. Regardless, those photos gave a strong sign of support for Lucid's safety.

Speaking as an engineer, I completely agree.

I heard this from a Tesla Model S taxi driver in Sweden that when he puts in a super charger site as destination in navigation, the car will automatically initiate preconditioning the battery for the charging session. Presumably the car will factor in the distance and traffic condition to time...

Ok, but the app also insists on re-confirming unlocking the car too. If I accidentally tap that button, I can just lock it. Come to think of it, if the designer wants to be particularly confident that someone is not accidentally tapping on a button, there are ways to go about it without making...

Don't know if this was brought up in the previous pages, I really don't want to re-confirm everything I select on the app. When I hit "open frunk", why should I press a second button to say "oh yeah, I am sure I want to open the frunk"?

Hmm, is this the "big" update? I am happy to see the right side of the center display finally getting used.

I was always sure that I would get a Taycan. Then one day I saw a post on reddit that showed both a Taycan and a Lucid in a photo. I thought that Lucid looked pretty good, did some research and the promptly switched my interest. P.S. those comments in that reddit post was a bit funny.

I heard something interesting from a customer service advisor in Millbrae this week. If your car's software version falls two versions behind, it won't be able to update on its own to the current version. He gave an example scenario of two updates in quick succession (e.g., within one week), and...

Short version: be mindful about what Bank of America loan agent tells you, he/she may deliberately try to deceive you Long version: I received the VIN for my AGT order in late May. On May 31, I decided to check out BoA's auto loan process to see how the term looked like. I was approved, and...

Congrats!

Look at the bright side, this is one order of magnitude less than what Jon Rettinger faced.
