Lucid Gravity
Has anyone experienced this with their Lucid Gravity?
This has occurred (4) times since the beginning of July when the weather hits 94+ degrees & vibration of the steering column at <40 mph.
  • Exiting freeway when approaching <35 mph I thought it was another vehicles subwoofer but soon realized the vibration & noise was coming from the GT
  • Completed a 32A charge for 1.5 hours when driving out of the garage
  • While sitting idle for 8 mins to drop off groceries than reversing out of my driveway
  • Backing into my garage from a 15 min drive from the gym
The sound is noticeable within the cabin with windows rolled up.
I've already notified the SC which the foreman & engineering team is reviewing the logs when these occurrences happen - at the moment they don't know what is the cause of the issue.

- at :15 exterior ignoring the typical EV sound
 
Could it be the tires? EVs have "soft tires" to handle the power. If the tires sit still for a while the side in contact with the road goes flat and the when you drive it takes a while until they get back in shape (they do after a while). This is especially true on hot surfaces. I didn't have this issue with my Lucid Air, but a friend of mine had this regularly with his Mercedes and I did experience it once with my BMW M3
 
If I didn't know better I'd say it sounds like you've got a critter trapped somewhere in the works, especially in the last clip. Really strange. Did support come up with anything?

I don't have a Gravity, but in my AT I can feel a very minor cyclical vibration in the wheel and pedals when the cooling pumps are working extra hard. This is not that.
