    Stuck Frunk

    Do you have a Pure? They can release OTA, but I can't do it from car or phone when it sticks... If yours is like mine it will probably work fine most of the time, but will stick again at random times. Lucid says they had successful open-close at least fifty times on my car...then we tried...

    Model S Plaid vs Vs Air Touring

    :rolleyes:Vegan leather has become the current term used to describe vinyls and composite blended materials which somewhat mimic leather in appearance. There is nothing truly vegan about them, but it sounds environmentally friendly, and no cows were killed for their hides.

    Stuck Frunk

    FWIW. I spoke to Beverly Hills service center late yesterday to confirm my next appointment to work on frunk again... The Lucid rep now says that had other similar failures with Pure frunks recently, and now Lucid is looking at software issues with Pure frunk release... Anybody else with Pure...

    Massive insurance premium increase

    It is going up in a major way for all cars, especially in California, Florida and some other locations, but the huge prices for Lucid collision repairs will hit the insurance actuarial stats and underwriters will hit them harder $$ than other more common vehicles.. The mainstream cars have...

    Massive insurance premium increase

    I think that the cost of insurance is going to really hurt Lucid's sales efforts... Lucid has been working hard to put together sales programs and promos, but when folks get these huge $$ insurance quotes it can blow things up. I believe that Tesla has some type of insurance tie-in option, and...

    Stuck Frunk

    Hard to believe but after two long stays at two different Lucid service centers (Beverly Hills and Torrance) with complete replacement of the frunk latches, my sticking frunk issues continue.. Got stuck again today. Shows open but is only ajar, Could not open or get it to re-latch, and cannot...

    Money factor for leasing Touring

    Bank of America has a unit managing the Lucid Financial lease program... I doubt they can control lease money factor... Financing might be a different issue with the bank. When they offered the Sept-Nov promo leases with 0% money factor, it was a great offer, designed to move 2023 inventory...

    Rubber trim loosens off the wheel well

    I have this situation in both front wheel wells. Seems like clips fell out on the liners. Cannot believe that factory missed them, so must have been bad clips... Going by service center today.

    2022 vs 2023 Grand Touring

    I have PureLux in my car and just had GT with leather as loaner for ten days... I like the softness and feel of the PureLux better than the leather... Sits softer

    What are the exact differences between the Pure and Touring trims?

    FWIW... I have now had 2 weeks of experience with a GT loaner after two months with my Air Pure AWD, so have a good base of comparison of Air features... The leather, glass roof, soft close doors, massage seats, seat coolers, etc. are really nice, but I can live without them.. I am not a...

    OTA Update 2.1.43 - ROBUST THIS! - Important PSA to Update to 2.1.43 ASAP or RIP

    It looks like my car will be at Lucid service center for next several days, but curious if my much earlier 2022 Air GT loaner gets the update pushed sooner... Are updates pushed based on delivery dates?

    What are the exact differences between the Pure and Touring trims?

    Well covered as far as options .. Just a note on drivetrains... There is still some dwindling inventory of 2023 Pure cars with AWD available,, but all Pure models for 2024 will be RWD. From a performance viewpoint the AWD are a bit closer to Touring than the RWD version..

    Stuck Frunk

    My frunk saga continues and my car is at Torrance service center, while I drive a Grand Touring loaner.. My stuck frunk issue has not been duplicated at service center, but they have time stamps on my service calls and see the events in car data...They know it was already in service at Beverly...

    OTA update 2.1.42

    I have issue with Sirius where it shows channel not available, but if I switch up or down to next channel and return to desired channel and it works..

    Stuck Frunk

    Same here... They had my car for 10 days and could not replicate the stuck frunk... Without any repairs or updates I felt pretty sure it might happen again-- and it did the day after I picked it up..and twice the following week... This week I took car to service and we could not replicate the...

    Prices dropped again

    Thank you.. Comparing a start-up program with direct sales at Lucid with thousands of car brokers and dealers nationally, who are competing to make deals on ugly cars in a slowing market might be worth a comment, but maybe its time to move on in the conversation.

    Prices dropped again

    Alway happy to look further.. I was looking at current Lease Hacker deals and saw the 830/month EQS is with a fleet deal.. As shown it requires a 10k security deposit... Did I misread?

    Prices dropped again

    Wow.. Don't think we want to be contentious, but rather than being negative towards others who doubt your posted deals, I suggest some current research at MB dealer sites on new stock... You want me to believe a Lease Hacker screen shot or real dealer promotional deals? This is current active...

    Lucid Sanctuaries

    I think these major changes to Air display panels and layout might happen in subsequent generations, but doubt there are going to do a redesign for quite awhile. Any attempt at sanctuary or ambient themes would be OTA tweaks with current layout. For now we have to assume all major creative...

    OTA update 2.1.42

    Siri is actually taking accurate dictation since update.... I assume this was fixed as part of the phone/echo improvement with car play..
