    Scheduled charging failed twice last night

    Was the reset on the app or in the car? Since 3.0 scheduled charging is wonky for me.

    When did Air headliners become grey and cheap?

    See myriad stock price and "future of the brand" doom threads...then they make moves to address them and then they get dinged for it. This is more or less sums up the entirety of the internet.

    2024 Lucid Air Touring — $22K Repair Estimate, Insurance Wants to Total It. Advice?

    I know everyone here are professional collision industry repair specialists and I'm not, but that picture shows superficial wound. Can you give more details of the incident? Looks like a parking lot 2mph "didn't see ya" sort of deal.

    Destroyed tire and rim. What to do now????

    Do you have a friend or neighbor that can help or oversee your process? Changing a tire isn't that complicated, but it doesn't sound like you have much experience working on cars and getting it wrong has serious consequences.

    Scheduled charging

    Lucid home charger user here. What I found works for me is after I plug it in and wait a few minutes. When I go to the app and "wake" the car, it will give me a notification that charging is scheduled. Works 100% of the time as long as I get the notification that it's scheduled.

    Lucid Air Cupholder NHTSA Complaint

    This sort of zero personal responsibility thinking is absolutely maddening. The cup doesn't fit! If it spills on your lap, that is a lack of critical thinking skills problem, not a Lucid problem.

    Lucid Air Cupholder NHTSA Complaint

    Are you going to blame Lucid if your vehicle does not fit in your garage? How about using a different cup that fits the design?

    3.0 on Air

    Are you really not familiar with myriad complaints that many (not all) have about 2.10 and earlier UX? This is not the thread to regurgitate them but I'm so far very impressed with the speed and responsiveness. Seems like nothing went untouched, even the steering wheel volume control rate is...

    3.0 on Air

    I can confirm I just received notification of the software update. Mine is a May 2024 (Pure) build. Hoping this update is what I need to convince my wife to stay with Lucid.

    3.0 on Air

    I read the same thing in a Google alert, but all I can find now is "select 2024 models will need the hardware update", so does that mean the May+ builds are good to go?

    Lease Buyout

    What criteria did I lay out that puts her in a beige Camry? Operating door handles and a UX that doesn't crash opens up a lot of options...all them, actually. I'm not putting anyone in anything, she is making these choices based on her personal experience. Shout out E-40, everyone has choices.

    Lease Buyout

    The residual is just a best guess (or manipulation tool to adjust lease payments at the time of sale) but you can't use that as any measure of winning or losing on a buy out today. Check out the Lucid used site and you'll see 2-3 model year newer for less than those early residuals. Our...

    Is anybody successful in reaching Lucid for Annual Service

    Brake fluid is one of the most overlooked maintenance items on vehicles, or at least American vehicles. Euro brands are good about recommending 2-3 year change intervals, but I'm willing to bet there is a large number of cars on the road here that have never had the fluid changed and they are...

    Scotty Kilmer Reviewed my '25 AT

    Unwatchable? Obnoxious?? I knew who he was just by the name, so whatever it is he does seems to build recognition, if not followers.

    Air Pure vs Grand Touring in 2026

    '24 Pure with 20" wheels and Santa Cruz interior. I'm obviously biased, but the Pure with a few options checked off is really the sweet spot of value and driving dynamics.
