    RESOLVED Is motor whine normal?

    I watched this Muro Live video on the Lucid rear drive motor and am speculating that having the deferential inside the motor and pre-reduction gear is the source of the whine. I don't care for the motor whine but mostly notice it when I drive my wire's EQS, which doesn't have much if any.

    Hot door body makes thud expand

    I had the plastic trim piece at the bottom of the door break the first time I left the car in the sun on a hot day in Houston and opened the back door. Service took care of it and it hasn't happened again.

    Software update 2.1.20

    I am going to disagree, of course. It is sad that the software was so very incomplete and buggy when I got my car in December of 2021. Yes, the current software is much, much better but it is still, IMHO, just release candidate quality. Also, if you compare features and functionality to...

    Hunting wild Lucid Airs

    Software update 2.1.20

    But are they "robust" improvements? Or just regular ones?

    Radio reception

    The Mercedes EQS has no protruding antennas and still has great radio and satellite reception so it can be done.

    Radio reception

    I have had the same issues. Lucid will fix it someday, I hope. The latest update did help SiriusXM to recover better but not all the time.

    Lane keep assist not recognizing lane markings

    I use HA almost every day and on most of the highways here in Houston it works well. It can still drift out of lanes on some curves.

    SiriusXM seemed to break internet connectivity... sorta

    I am having far more cell-data dropouts than I have with the satellite receivers in our other cars. Once the Lucid software can recover on its own from "slow network" conditions, SiriusXM streaming will be much better.

    BMW I7 versus Lucid Air Grand Touring!

    I have already said that I don't like the i7 but I do think that it and other EVs have features that the DE lacks and yes, I think Lucid made mistakes. Read my many posts and you will see what "I" think is lacking in my DE. But after 20 months, I still have the DE, still drive it and hope...

    BMW I7 versus Lucid Air Grand Touring!

    I would gladly give up the frunk in my DE for all of the things that the i7 does better.

    BMW I7 versus Lucid Air Grand Touring!

    Ok, I had no interest in watching the video until I read these comments and wanted to see how biased Edmunds is, so I watched it to the very end. I think that the i7 is butt ugly and would never buy one, but the video and the Edmunds conclusions seem well balanced and accurate, at least to me.

    Gravity Launch

    I view the Gravity as a crossover "ish" vehicle, not an SUV. The RS1 is an SUV. I consider them different markets.

    Lucid Now Charging for Mobile Service (Conditionally)

    Good CS triage should stop most unnecessary service calls, I would think.
