The thread title inquires about 2025 models, and not one reply has commented on a 2025 model. May as well rename the thread.
I took delivery of a 2025 GT in late August; Lucid informed me that my VIN was the first '25 GT delivered in the southeast US. I have had so many issues with the car that I had to compose a list on my phone, with "Since [date/version]" to help isolate the cause of each one.
- Lane Departure Protection re-enabling itself while the car is asleep. I manually disabled it on day one, and occasionally I get forced back to my original lane and realize it was mysteriously active once again.
- Driver door soft-close works intermittently since 2.3.10. All other doors work perfectly.
- SiriusXM disconnects on a regular basis. Supposedly it uses AT&T for reception; my phone also uses this network and has no issues in the same areas. Probably an issue with the trunk-embedded antenna, according to my remote service technician.
- Speaker system cannot be muted by scrolling to 0 volume. It even shows a mute symbol; this means nothing. You will still hear music. Only solution is to press the pause button on the steering wheel for actual silence, or hope your audio source disconnects from reception issues as it tends to do anyway.
- Audio occasionally becomes totally distorted. Even the sounds of opening menus in the Pilot Panel will be distorted and glitchy. There is also white noise every time you press buttons/menus. Only current solution is to pull over and perform a Logo Reset, as customers call it.
- Keyfob will almost certainly drain itself if you do not keep it in some sort of faraday container at home.
- If you drive in any kind of rain, the front LIDAR sensor (which I've been told is not actually used for anything right now) will become "blocked" and produce errors while driving. This is a known issue, but they haven't bothered to eliminate the meaningless error notifications, for whatever reason.
- Steering wheel creaking, which I honestly don't make enough U-turns to care about.
Oh and on October 4th, the Rear Drive Unit failed while I was on I-95 near Jacksonville and it blew the Pyro Fuse and damaged the MPB. "Vehicle Not Drivable - Drive System Error". Riviera Beach Service Center just completed work on it today, and it was re-delivered to me about two hours ago. Odometer at time of failure was 1,646 miles. It sat on the side of the interstate for 39 hours before a properly-equipped tow truck arrived to relocate the vehicle. I'll probably make a new thread detailing this debacle later on.
But hey, when it does drive, it does so like a dream. If all of the smaller problems had popped up with a hundred hours or a few thousand miles in between each one, I'd hardly care. But instead, they have all been present and unresolved since a day or two after delivery.
