Is this the mirror or the rear window glass? Either way, it's much better in my 2025 Air Pure. I noticed it (and didn't like it) in a couple of 2022/23 loaners I have driven.

Add me to the "couldn't go back" camp. It's a weird feeling to drive by gas stations that I used to stop at and realize I will never need to do that with this car. For where I live and how I use my car, charging has proven to be a lot less complicated than I thought, and it's definitely...

I suspect your experience is pretty normal actually - Threads like this are going to attract comments from folks who have experienced similar things. Lucids are not trouble free cars - they are a new car company building a new kind of automobile - but good ownership experiences are common.

So, if I put it in sprint mode and corner hard under full acceleration (which I will neither confirm nor deny doing in my suburban setting) I can get just a bit of a bounce/chirp from them. Traction control is still on, so I might get more with that off, but they will hit their grip limit, even...

Heh. Well, I suppose it depends on what you want in life and where you are driving…

19s are what I got. The ride really is better (I have personally verified this through a couple of weeks with loaners with the bigger wheels). You get all season tires - which most of us not in the south need anyway. They look pretty good if you remove the aero covers and spend $100 for the...

It’s a temporary hold. Don’t worry about it.

Godspeed as they say - and may your replacement vehicle be much less of a pain to you. I've had my '25 Pure back to the service center twice in my 4 months of driving it. I felt like the service people did a good job by me (Tysons Corner VA). I always had a loaner and they were in very...

I'm in the "don't like them" camp - at least on the colors I have seen them on. To me the bears are a bit too large and add some busy-ness to a very clean looking car. But as always YMMV...

Has that helped?

It also can be from warming up/cooling down the car... It's a lot easier on systems to maintain temperatures than significantly change them.

I had this happen several times. Now it doesn't. For me, all the trails led back to two things, Apple Airplay and proximity unlock via my iPhone. If you are using these features, turn them off for a bit and see if the problem continues. My only (layman's) guess is that multiple...

Heh, I like minivans... that's our other vehicle. A Gravity might replace our minivan one day, but also that will be when our kids are older. They are such practical vehicles...

Sounds like your car is dealing with the same issue mine was. As far as I can tell, they just replace things until they get a combination of parts that works. It's annoying that their system for such a basic feature as opening and closing the car is a mess, but I feel for the techs. What a...

That's wild, and also why I turn off the listening feature. If I want to talk to the car, I can push the button.
