    Lucid not going beyond 36 mph

    My lucid switched to some mode where it stopped going beyond 36 mph. It was super scary when i merged on the freeway and the car wouldn’t go beyond 36 mph. Fortunately nobody was hurt. I contacted support and they said my car had gone into ‘turtlemode. While they figure out how that happened-...

    New Touring

    sorry you had that experience. I got my car just a couple weeks before you did and have had a similar experience with electrify America not charging at the speeds on the chargers. I heard PlugShare app is a good resource to get intel in which chargers are working well etc. Also had my car go...

    New Touring

    ...to unplug and plug back in. I was driving back on Sunday and about 130 miles from home got an error message on freeway and car went i to turtle mode. I went as far as I could and pulled off the freeway and called customer service who instructed me to try and do a reboot. In the meantime I...

    I had a general question question for all current Lucid air owners

    Thanks for sharing your experiences in detail; it definitely helps me understand where failures can occur and perhaps how to avoid them. Hoping your experience improves.

    I had a general question question for all current Lucid air owners

    I have learned to not leave the trunk open for too long or the software gets confused. I was packing for a family trip and left the trunk open while kids added bags haphazardly. It ended with the car being frozen, the trunk refusing to latch and us unpacking and driving a different vehicle...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Pure

    I had the same frunk issue with my touring delivered 12/24/22. Still waiting for service this week. (took 2 weeks to schedule). For me it is even worse, It got stuck and when I pressed the eject button from inside the car, it made a huge noise and the driver side headlight trim came out and the...

    ...had the car and hadn't installed the part. No explanation why. My car is currently at RB waiting for them to diagnose why I went into turtle mode. They've had the car since 23 December and are still waiting for something - not sure what since they won't update me. Anyone else unhappy with RB?

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Pure

    Those frunk issues suck; service can fix those, though. To be clear, it doesn't give you the 'turtle of doom' but it puts you in 'turtle mode' which limits speed/power (presumably so the frunk doesn't fly open at high speeds). The "doom" you see people refer to is a drivetrain failure or an...

    Best reactions to your Air

    i was at a red light at the precise moment i was having issues with the frunk lid not closing completely so car was in turtle mode. The guy in the heavily tinted Tesla Y next to me at the light takes out his entire ipad and is taking pics of the Lucid while i'm trying figure my way out of...

    Top Gear's review of Lucid Air

    ...who considers the whole process before making assumptions. It’s much more helpful than the “Lucid is lying about EPA” or “the sound system isn’t good” or the “that owners car went into turtle mode, Lucid doesn’t know what they’re doing” stuff. I thought benefit of the doubt was going extinct.

    winter driving

    ...until getting inside a garage to help warm up the car enough for the pistons to function fully- also after a few miles the car entered turtle mode and wouldn't drive above 35mph. From this point on, the hood would open and close but still not fully close and now made clicking sound, i believe...

    Frunk not opening

    Just press it down as you can always close both the fruck and the trunk manually without hurting anything.

    Frunk not opening

    ...so I had to drive home (a short distance) with it partially open with the car alarming the whole way. After a few minutes of driving, turtle mode activated and I was capped at 35mph although that was the max speed there anyway. Once I got home I tried it again and it then opened and saw...

    Turtle Mode is not conducive to a happy holiday

    ...a charge port door blocked error message while doing something over the speed limit on US 4. Obviously no blockage. Then the dreaded Turtle Mode appears. Get off the highway and try all the resets I know: Standard lock and walk, turn signal, valet carded and the Bobby. No joy. Call for a...

    10K or more on your Lucid? Post your experience here...

    To follow up on the efficiency comments, 2.9 mi/kWh has been my very consistent average. I’ve historically always been on Smooth but recently started changing to Sprint because I like the feel better and it doesn’t seem to impact my efficiency at all. My best has been between 3.4-3.6 and this...

    ...issues for all ages getting in/out of the back seats. That’s one large feedback item I wish would be addressed. Issues I’ve hit so far: Turtle mode on delivery (oil was wrong in my motor), trim issues on side (they came and replaced it… with 3mm tape which apparently holds it on), trim below...

    Brick or Turtle Incidence

    Right. No data, so it's just your opinion, however rationally derived, at this point. You know who does have the data? Lucid. If your opinion, and Bobby's supposition, are correct, Lucid could easily provide the data to support you. They haven't, and until they do, this forum's data are all...

    update .35

    As much as it sucks for you I now understand exactly what was going on. I tend to write long posts and apparently can only understand something clearly if it’s similarly long haha. I love throwing out guesses as to what a problem might be and then being totally wrong about it, because hey...
