    Insurance company claim experience.

    First, congrats on getting the car back. Second, this situation completely sucks twofold and I’m sorry you have to deal with it without your insurance company’s backing. Not only is Hollis a professional insurance fraud institution but your insurance decided to screw you instead as punishment...

    OTA 2.1.2 / 2.1.3

    Battery preconditioning doesn’t just mean warming up the battery. The reverse is true for extremely hot weather where the battery pack needs to be cooled for optimal charging. There is indeed a sweet spot (it’s called San Diego weather 😎)...

    Charging manners: should you educate folk hogging to 100% SOC ?

    Yes. I just meant idle fees should be income based.

    Charging manners: should you educate folk hogging to 100% SOC ?

    Had this same experience in a rental Model 3. I thought it was brilliant. Can’t wait for Lucid to call and offer NACS retrofit. I’ll be the first to raise my hand. Hell, I’ll even gladly pay twice the rate per kW if I can use their network in the Lucid at full speed.

    Charging manners: should you educate folk hogging to 100% SOC ?

    They need to be a lot more than that and graduated. The longer you sit idle, the more each minute costs. In Norway they’ve found a fix for the weight of the penalty hurting everyone the same. A speeding ticket costs 10% of your annual income. Would love to see this implemented here.

    Retaining clips were broken. As you suggested earlier, they probably broke them during disassembly.

    What a great story! Their service is unparalleled. Shame that more aren’t eligible to experience true customer service.

    Insurance company claim experience.

    The recalibration has to be done at Lucid. So they will hand the car over to Natick. I hope they don’t gouge you. I’m almost happy to be moving to another area knowing I’ll never have to deal with Hollis Autobody again .

    Insurance company claim experience.

    They had left my frunk open for 5 days. I wouldn’t read into it. What I would suggest however is calling them and letting them know to call you if there are repairs being done beyond what the original estimate specified. My original estimate from USAA was somewhere around $1500. Next thing I...

    Insurance company claim experience.

    This was my damage. I kid you not. No panels were bent. The car was parked when the deed happened. They replaced so much unnecessary stuff (including my driver side headlight, which then subsequently failed and took an extra week for them to source an actually new headlight). All this for...

    Insurance company claim experience.

    Uh oh. I had a bumper scrape (probably happened at Kent hospital ironically). Hollis auto body charged USAA over $18K (happy to elaborate on all the unnecessary work they did). I realize you have no other choice for a Lucid approved body shop, but Hollis is filled with thieves.

    Air Conditioning not cooling the car enough

    I hope so too. It’s ridiculous that such a basic function couldn’t have been ironed out by now, more than a year after deliveries began.

    Air Conditioning not cooling the car enough

    Finally! Thought it was just my car or I was losing my mind. Had the car looked at by Lucid who assured me HVAC was functioning but all I hear is the loud blower with no cold air coming from vents. I’ve found the “fix” to be cycling the AC on and off several times until I feel air coming out...

    Ceramic coating, window tinting, and wraps

    You're in CA, correct? Any pushback on vehicle inspection? I'm looking at tinting laws and considering the 35% 3M ceramic IR as well, but CA laws seem to frown upon light transmittance below 70% for the front side windows. Anticipating the Palm Springs sun will roast this car interior...
