Call your local SC. I just spoke with mine earlier today and brought up the mobile option, after initially discussing my going to the SC, and he said mobile would be an option. I'm still waiting to hear back on scheduling, because he said they want to try to schedule another customer who lives...

I just had a realization. My car went in for service back in April because the pilot panel was doing some weird things. The SC said the CCC was bad and replaced it. It's wishful thinking on my part, but I wonder if they would have just replaced it with a current CCC, or if there's any way if...

Yeah, while we with older MYs may be missing out on something like a heat pump, I'm psyched this is an option, and further affirms my decision to just buy the car before the lease runs out. I'm already going to be way over on miles, may as well just go all-in and plan on keeping this car for a...

I called Natick to schedule this service and they had no idea what was going on and didn't even want to try to schedule it yet. The SA there said he would call me back

That’s amazing if true. I may sign back up for Tidal if more evidence confirms this

Cool thanks.

Apple released Dev beta 3 for iOS 26 today, and like a moran I installed it right away. Since then, the Lucid app does not work. It's completely unresponsive once it opens. I've rebooted, force closed, reinstalled, etc, nothing has gotten it to work. Just a heads up for the rest of you...

The biggest reason to lease EVs currently is the tax breaks. If you're shopping Lucid, you likely make too much money to qualify for the $7,500 tax credit if you purchase, but if you lease, you get that. It's the main reason we leased my wife's XC40 Recharge as well as my Lucid. We're almost...

Yes, Purlux means you don’t get the same ambient lighting. But you get massage seats. I don’t have that option because I have leather. If I had to choose between lights and massage, I’d take massage

Yeah at this point, I love the car and would not mind keeping it for a while. I’ve had too much car ADHD over my ~30 years driving, it’s time to slow it down. Even if I’m technically upside down on the overall value, I don’t really mind, I love this car

Noticed another bug with media. The list of recents on the Home Screen never updates

Yeah I’ll see what the landscape is at the time. My residual is $49k (touring with SSP MSRP of like $92k). I know I’ll owe about $8k on miles alone. If my car remains trouble free, I’d rather just buy it if the overall difference is minimal. I do love this car.

This is eye opening stuff. My lease is 36 months and 10k miles per year. I’m already at 8,500 miles after 8 months, so I’m on pace to be over. To make matters worse, I just accepted a new job and for the first time in a decade, I’ll have a commute. This commute will add about 8k miles per year...

Is your phone set up as mobile key? Are you relatively close to your car? I can’t use mobile key because A: it crushes my phone’s battery, and B: the car will never wake up via the app

It’s funny to new that all these new AA drivers haven’t looked at nor heard a single thing CarPlay users have been discussing for a year now. Small overall picture? Check. Angled screen so it looked crooked? Check. And ultimately seeing people not even using it very much because the built-in...
