    Lease return excess wear & tear

    I got a few quotes and was able to get the curb rash fixed on all four wheels for $300. I also got a good deal on the tires through Costco and fixed that too (anyone else would have charged more).

    Lucid Air RWD - About to return to Leassor

    Same here. I think the fingers are pointing to BoA but in the end it reflects upon my experience with Lucid. There’s a minor scratch on the front bumper that falls within what’s “expected” but was flagged by the inspector as “excessive” and quoted replacing the entire unit for $800. It made me...

    Lucid Air RWD - About to return to Leassor

    Thank you. It was really odd to get that letter. I scheduled the return date/time and they said they’d send me a confirmation email which a week later I still haven’t received. Fingers crossed. 🤞

    Lucid Air RWD - About to return to Leassor

    I’m returning in a week. After the first inspection, I had my rims repaired. I got a letter from Lucid that I needed to send the receipts for the repair to them. Did you do that? Why would Lucid care who did the repair and how much I paid for it?

    An Open Letter to Lucid: 1,408 Miles In, 3.52 mi/kWh, and a New Owner's Wish List

    Point well taken. I don’t know why certain brands do and other don’t then. Would there be a charge per vehicle to have the native app for Tesla and Rivian, you think? It’s not like Rivian is significantly better financially than Lucid, or are they just focusing more on the software experience...

    An Open Letter to Lucid: 1,408 Miles In, 3.52 mi/kWh, and a New Owner's Wish List

    Apple wants you to use CarPlay to play music and have no incentive to let you do it through Lucid. This is an issue with BMW as well with the above stated as assumed reason. Spotify and Qobuz on the other hand are available as native apps on BMW which are the ones I care about. Since 2.5, the...

    Lease Return Tires

    I am not sure to be honest. What has bothered me all along is that when I got home, there was a Monroney Sticker of another car in my trunk. I called Lucid as that car pricing was $20k less than what I had paid and seemed to be pretty similar but by then the car had been driven off the lot and...

    Lease Return Tires

    Frankly I never even considered the Pirellis until now when I read the Lucid statement. A while back there was a thread about Pirellis and some concerns were raised about bubbles on them. This was at the time I needed new tires and switched to Michelin. They’re on sale right now so I’m happy.

    Lease Return Tires

    You are right. What made me doubt was this statement: “All four tires must match your original Lucid specifications”. Given the fact that the originals were the Pirellis, I thought that I’d have to return with those then too.

    Lease Return Tires

    Maybe but I’d suspect that they don’t tailor their tire choice by state, would they? I got my car in McLean, VA. When I spoke to Lucid, they told me I could get any EV approved Michelin. I’m getting the Pilot All Season 4.

    Lease Return Tires

    I did see those but the originals were Pirellis. I finally got a call back from Lucid yesterday and they said I could use either Pirellis or Michelins.

    Lease Return Tires

    Thank you! Does it matter which tire? I was planning on getting the Pilot Sport All Season 4’s.

    Lease Return Tires

    I have called twice but have been on hold for longer than my patience allowed. I will definitely call again tomorrow.

    Lease Return Tires

    Hi everybody. I am close to my lease end. I got my Air GT ‘23 with 20” Pirellis which didn’t last very long. My Michelins have done a better job. I don’t think their current tread will pass the test so I need to put new tires on. The Lucid website states: “All four tires must match your...

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    Thank you. Frankly, I have a few more months left in my lease. I am chalking it up to a learning experience and going with a more traditional brand. I don’t deserve to deal with this while paying for a $140k car.

    Engineering Explained. This is bad.

    I have stopped opening my frunk due to the same issue with my Air (not sure if it’s the same engineering issue as the Gravity). Despite multiple pushes and open-close sessions, it keeps telling me it is not closed and limits my ability to drive at normal speeds. It took about 20 open-close...

    Hot spot?

    I need some help understanding what happens in the car with my WiFi: I have my WiFi on at home and at work for obvious reasons and have no problems. When I walk to my car, the door unlocks with a varying degree of delay. Oddly, it doesn’t respond with the phone in my pocket but if I take it out...

    Your experiences on parts availability please...

    I had my side view mirror knocked off by a passing car. The parts were ordered and the mobile tech serviceman (awesome guy btw), came and installed it while I was at work. Three week turnaround which was very good in my opinion. One big drawback: he was unable to calibrate the camera (they...
