So it looks like you've satisfied yourself that Lucid never claimed that FSD was imminent in the Air. I would agree that "advanced autonomous driving, capability over time, partial autonomy" is exactly what the Air has accomplished. If you bought your 25 AGT with DDP you likely had these...

There's a whole genre that has emerged in online media that Rich Rebuilds is a part of. It's "I bought this car really cheap, lets see if I can get it to run?" Whether its Rich, Samcrac, Tyler Hoover or others, the formula is basically the same. And it's punctuated with, "we don't know why...

I do believe the company will have no choice but to revisit this topic as they mature. I'm fortunate enough to live close to a service center. But if I owned the car where the closest SC was hundreds of miles away and the car was out of warranty it would be a major concern. Transportation...

What was the outcome of your arbitration? I'm assuming it didn't go your way.

The decision to brick a car typically follows the vehicle being declared a total loss. That determination is made by the insurer, not Lucid. If the economics dictate that a car can be repaired, it will be repaired. When I buy or insure a vehicle I don't think about how a salvage...

It sounds like you bought a brand new car from Lucid and didn’t insure it. While I don’t know if this sounds fair it certainly sounds dumb. And yes I realize your scenario was hypothetical. But nobody buys a $60K - $100K car without insuring it. Damaged Lucid’s are repaired and put back on...

Once you've have a bad experience(s) it doesn't leave your memory. And new problems stack upon old problems, even if they've been resolved. Your history forms your impression of the brand. While I've been very fortunate in my ownership experience, others clearly have not. And that's a real...

There are a couple of different options. You can run a VIN check at Goodcar.com. I believe a report is a couple of bucks. Alternatively you can use Auto Check or Car Fax but the cost of those reports is higher. If you recently returned a leased car and want to know where it ended up I would...

If you feel that your investment in Lucid will be undermined by negative posts on this forum then you may want to reconsider your decision to hold Lucid stock and/or whether or not you follow this site. People will respond and react to negative experiences as they see fit. They may be...

The stock price is unlikely to move upwards in the near term given current priorities and market realities. The company has emphasized improving cash flow and cost. Given the interest rate environment and the $2.5B in debt that needs to be serviced that's going to be very difficult. You can...

Nor does a good experience mean that everyone else would have one as well. Experiences will vary as will the reactions to those experiences. Neither are right or wrong. And sharing an experience, good or bad, shouldn't trigger a hostile response and character assassinations. Because I've got...

If this was done for compliance purposes, which seems to be the case, then it likely reflects the input of various Lucid teams from Legal to Engineering and Software. A combination of what's required, doable, and cost effective. If it checks the box and keeps resources available for more...

Agreed. And the standard is measured against every other car brand and particularly luxury brands. Last week I had an issue with one of my other vehicles. I called on Friday to make an appointment for today. I had no problem in doing so and was provided a loaner. By the end of the day...

If you can't get a discount off of residual, keep track of the VIN and see where the vehicle ends up after going through the auction process. It may end up back in the hands of Lucid or another dealer.

Unfortunately your relationship with Lucid and BOA are not one in the same. And while I don't know the details of your lease, the economics have generally been less than favorable for BOA given where the residual value was set on many of these leases. That's certainly not your problem but may...

So you're willing to put your warranty at risk and ignore a recall over a seatbelt graphic? I've been running on 2.10 since July and have had no issues. It was several weeks before I even noticed that they changed the seat belt graphic. Somehow I've been able to suppress my rage.

I used to live in Chicago (and at one point Naperville) prior to heading out west. I don't miss winter driving at all. I did own rear wheel drive vehicles over the years and winter driving was always an adventure. I've often wondered how the Lucid would handle the snow given it's heaviness...

The AWD Pure was discontinued after 2023 so if that’s critical to your purchase you’ll either need to buy an older Pure or a newer Touring. You might also want to consider that the heat pump was added to all vehicles in 2025 and that will help with your winter range.

The answer is a bit more nuanced. Because even with a NACS port the Air is going to be limited to 50 kW at all Superchargers with the exception of V4. And to solve that problem you either need a lot more V4 cabinets or a major redesign of the Air's 900v architecture.

Imagine the difficulty in manufacturing a car, any car, if you had to be responsive to everyone's individual gripe and perceived shortcoming. I bought my AGT knowing that it had the best range of any large sedan hands down. That hasn't changed. I drive the way I want to drive. Sometimes I...
