I wouldn’t say that. There have been a couple instances, but it is by no means a widespread issue.This is well documented and unfortunate the tolerances on some high-touch points have been passed over for QC.
Not yet, it is a hard to procure part lol. It’s on their list.Mine buttons are very poor and feel like they are falling off also each one is not aligned looks cheap and broken did you ever get this resolved?
I would complain if yours are coming loose. The more we condone the less need for them to improve.Of the relatively few buttons and manual switchgear in the car (steering wheel buttons/toggles, window lifts, dashboard volume, turn signals, gear selector) those four A/C toggles are easily the flimsiest in feel and operation. i understand that they might have come from different suppliers than the other switchgear, but I don't understand how they got through QC at Lucid.
A few months ago Zak Edson, the VP of Sales & Service, called me to get my impressions of the car after driving it a while. Those A/C toggles were one of the things I brought up with him. He made no commitment but intimated that Lucid was going to address the issue. However, if they do it will probably be for forward production, not replacement of existing units -- until they fail. But everything about this is just my guess.

Ha Ha just did a double take there. IMO AC is very underwhelming for me and the vents and that dash lip were a poor design. Yes one of my buttons is loose. I do use that volume button.Mine aren't coming loose; it's just something I have noticed the few times I've used them. I almost never use them, in fact, as the A/C is very good at bringing the temperature quickly to the set point and holding there . . . at least when the A/C is working at all.

It's not that they don't perform, the just feel cheap and nasty. Like they wiggle etc. and just overall feel flimsy. The steering wheel buttons (the up/down) are kind of stiff but have gotten used to those.What are you guys doing to your buttons? I'm 9 months in and they look and perform perfectly. Not loose and are perfectly aligned with the edges.
I agree, just got my GT and I currently have a 22 Tesla MSLR. The airflow is not as strong at lower levels on AUTO and you have to increase the fan speed which creates more interior noise, privileged problem...Ha Ha just did a double take there.

I’m sure service will be glad to replace the buttons.I have had my GT for about 3 months now. Recently the AC buttons looked “off”. Upon closer inspection I noted that parts of the overlying plastic (?) coating have broken off. I don’t have kids and don’t treat the car in a rough fashion. It’s only ever washed / detailed by my longtime mobile detailer (same guy every time) and my suspicion is that a loop of microfiber cloth is catching raised portions of the plastic and causing them to split off.
I wonder if customer service would replace them as it looks less than fetching.

I had the same issue with my M. Awaiting a mobile technician to replace the button now.I have had my GT for about 3 months now. Recently the AC buttons looked “off”.
