I recently went through this and it took something crazy like 6 MONTHS from start to finish, to replace the windshield on my standard, Al roof Air.
Apparently there was nasty chip down low on the windshield in the black area, so I never saw it.
It quickly migrated into a long vertical crack in a matter of weeks from the temp swings.
I went through my insurance, Liberty Biberty, who in turn, farms that out to Safelite.
I set it all up and the day before the appointment that's when I get notice from Safelite "we don't do Lucids."
Gee, thanks for telling me NOW.......
So I went through the Chicago LSC, and they replaced the windshield for $2,100. Took them about 8 days.
The part that took forever was getting the reimbursement from Biberty, because they wanted paperwork from Lucid, showing that they charged my card for the service.
Well Lucid never did that before, they just send me invoices, and that corresponding amt just shows up on my cc statement several days later.
Once I was able to get that paperwork, which took 3 calls to Lucid and 2 separate staff members to help, Biberty finally sent me the balance of reimbursement...... 6 weeks later.
I was pretty floored how expensive it was to replace a Lucid "standard" windshield. I can't even imagine what a glass canopy would be.
Edit: Are the Lucid windshields extra delicate?
No, I don't think so. But I think the fact that they're so aerodynamic, allows more stones and debris to come through and hit the windshield?
It sounds counter-intuitive, but on cars that were far less aerodynamic, where you have a huge wall of wind hitting the front, maybe buffers stones and debris from hitting the glass so much, or with less force? IDK. But I've never had so many chips before than on this Lucid Air and on my arguable, quite aerodynamic Jeep Grand Cherokee.
FORESHADOWING:
I have a deposit in for a new Gravity lease
With glass canopy.... ......
