    Doors painfully slow to unlock…

    Mine is consistently inconsistent. I only use the Mobile Key with my iPhone 14. Sometimes it acts like I would like, sometimes (more times), it doesn’t. I have just given up and accepted the finicky behavior. If I am working in the garage without the need for the car to unlock, it will do so...

    Post/share your non-Lucid other car(s)! (ICE-appreciation thread?)

    Love the Isetta, but I am a sucker for older cars. Heck, I still wouldn‘t mind picking up an old Bugeye (Frogeye) Sprite.

    Post/share your non-Lucid other car(s)! (ICE-appreciation thread?)

    I saw the Porsche color green Taycan Cross Turismo in Edinburgh last summer, just a sharp looking vehicle.

    RESOLVED Warranty service for those of us who don't live anywhere near a service center

    I have had a real issue with the lack of Service Center openings for a long time. First, I must say that Mobile Service has been exceptional and my mobile tech out of Richmond, VA, Mason, is one of the best reps Lucid could have for their Company. I was originally told before delivery that...

    Post/share your non-Lucid other car(s)! (ICE-appreciation thread?)

    I also had a '68 Mustang California Special, but sold that last spring. My first car was a '71 and I had the obnoxious 100lb '73 front bumper replaced with a '71 style chrome bumper. While technically not a Mach 1, the restorer and I had a miscommunication on which stripes to install. This...

    Post/share your non-Lucid other car(s)! (ICE-appreciation thread?)

    Restored 1973 Mustang Convertible, new engine, new transmission, new suspension, new wiring, new gauges, new paint, new interior, new fuel system (nowEFI), new exhaust, etc. About as far from an EV as you can get, talk about an aggressive idle...

    RESOLVED Is motor whine normal?

    Sounds like an air raid siren to me....

    RESOLVED Is motor whine normal?

    I have no opinion one way or another on it. That being said, I always tell my wife and others that it is like driving a ride at Disney with respect to the whine.

    Gurgle/scraping noise

    Well, Mason from Mobile Service just left my house. I really can't say enough how great of a representative he is for Lucid. He thinks he found the noise and made the necessary repair. If he was correct, and I believe and hope that he was, the noise came from two front drive unit bolts that...

    Gurgle/scraping noise

    This video has the sound. You can hear it in the background.

    Gurgle/scraping noise

    I have had a noise coming from what appears to be under the center console. That noise has been present pretty much since I purchased the car over 14 months ago. I have tried to ignore it, turn the radio up, etc., but even my wife is now pointing it out. I have taken rides with Mobile Service...

    Charging road trip perspective

    Well, we can agree to disagree. I never said that 100% of the focus (let alone "our" focus) should be on improving public charging. I did say that it was a major consideration for those considering an EV, let alone the cost of an EV in comparison. Are you saying to ignore that concern...

    HA post 2.1.10

    I tried HA again on my trip to Chapel Hill from Charlotte last weekend. Started off doing the whole ping pong thing so I just switched back over to ACC only. No biggie, I am not sure I trust technology to drive for me yet anyway.

    Charging road trip perspective

    I could have easily just said "to avoid difficult conversations with the Wife"... I, too, see it as a challenge I might be willing to take if travelling alone. I would rather avoid the conversations with the wife who might rather take her big, boring, yet comfortable, SUV.

    Charging road trip perspective

    The article reads like a Tesla ad for a reason. Generally speaking, their network appears to be more complete and reliable with respect to fast charging. I have never owned a Tesla and it wasn't on my list to consider when I was looking to replace my BMW M5. I primarily charge my Lucid at...

    Repair Costs

    So, I guess we should then also expect the insurance cost to be that much higher as well. An insurance Company SHOULD look at the repair cost being higher for whatever reason and charge accordingly. I did not find my insurance cost to be much, if at all, higher than my BMW M5, but the cost to...

    Damage to front lower bumper

    My comparison is for a Lucid rear bumper cover only vs. a much, much more involved GLS 450 front-end repair. I saw what they took apart on my Lucid and there was absolutely no comparison. There was nothing intrusive that they had to do with the Lucid, they had it apart in a day. They sent me...

    Damage to front lower bumper

    Lucid repairs are at least double the cost of "other luxury manufacturers". I had to have similar work on my wife's Mercedes that was a fraction of the cost. I also just had to replace the driver's side front corner of her car after she hit a deer. I am talking body work (bent fender)...

    Damage to front lower bumper

    Yea, I personally think the repair costs on this car are ridiculous, but it appears they may be universally ridiculous. The Lucid repair shop closest to me is in Hickory, NC. The repair cost to just replace the rear bumper cover was in the $12-$14k range with some "labor adjustment" accounting...
