I used a link my coworker sent me, but I didn't see any credit from it. I didn't see anywhere to physically put it in. Told my sales person. Hopefully they can adjust it.

I used the referral link from someone up my way, and while the website failed to include it in the order, my local sales team was easily able to add it afterwards. So you should be fine!
Just to update. It's only been 3 weeks, but I've had zero issues with the car. Built very well. Heat pump is amazing. Car goes from 30 to 70 degrees in about 5 minutes, preheated from my phone. No abnormal noises or creeks. Couldn't be happier.
Maybe the 2025 build quality has improved, or I just got a good one.

One other perspective. I really enjoy driving my 2023 Pure AWD and have only had occasional temporary software bugs that always self-corrected, except one hardware issue that will eventually need a service call which is alignment for the rear trunk. This is after one year of ownership so far. I followed the company for a while waiting and hoping for a more affordable model - and the Pure delivered. So I wanted the Air, but also wanted to support Lucid Motors with my purchase because I like the company's vision and direction (versus other competitors), and that it is an American design and manufacturer.
Locking not an issue. Unlock, maybe a couple times I got to the car and it wasn't awake yet, but as soon as a push the handle, it comes out. If anything, it's too sensitive. Mirrors going in and out repeatedly while I'm just working in the garage. Had to get a faraday box and turn off bluetooth.
With the cold, I've been preconditioning, so the car is awake already when i appoach. So that probably helps.
I’ve had my touring since February 2023 and June of 2023, I have had an air foil replaced a squeaky trunk,a vibrating steering wheel and the annoying infotainment issues all of us have had. Service has been wonderful with loaner cars each time. There has been significant value depreciation and in spite of all of that I would repeat my decision to buy the touring again in a heart beat. This is the most fun and wonderful car I’ve ever owner in spite of Lucid’s growing pains. Take the plunge you won’t regret it!

A young person showed me that the Lucid app was on and running in the background (Pixel 8) even if I did not see it on the screen. He showed me how to see all the apps that were open and "in the background". Once I properly closed the Lucid app I have no more trouble with the car flapping it's door handles at me. I have not had to turn Bluetooth off.
I keep my fobs in Faraday pouches to prevent battery drain and "flapping". Just because they are inside the house doesn't mean they are not trying to "talk" to the car, if they are in range, which drains the battery. I bet a lot of the problems are weak batteries = because of this. This fob is unlike others I have had.

I have not had the problems others constantly (talking to you, Kyle) complaining about here.
I have to wonder that part of the reason so many can't get the door handles to present before they get to them, is the fob / mobile key is "exhausted" from talking to the car for hours, unbeknownst to the owner. Are you having problems because the fob or mobile key is "between cycles" ? When I leave home I take my fob out of the pouch and put it in the watch pocket of my jeans, and forget about it. I have to remember to look for it before I wash the jeans, because the fob is so cool, so svelte, I forget it's there.
I believe Borski pointed out that the car's antenna is not as sensitive when approached from the rear. This is my experience, but still, door handles present before I get to them, just not as quickly.
I love this car. I am very sad to read so many post complaining about the fobs and lagging unlocking.
I want to let new owners know = "you are doing it wrong". Forget all you know about key fobs. Get fresh batteries, lick the bitter coating off, and keep the key in a Faraday pouch / cage when not in use. If not using the mobile key, turn the app off = close it running in the background.
