Having problems with getting a radar detector installed. Went to a top line place. This is there response: Would appreciate if any other people on this forum had a radar detector installed, how they did it and is it effective. Thanks.
Hi Jerry, good to hear from you — apologies for the delay.
We wanted to hold off on the radar due to some information that was given to me from a trusted source, the technical director for Escort Radar. He had mentioned a few dealers having issues with radar false alerts on the Lucid platforms do to radar/lidar based sensors on the vehicle. I wanted to get a solid confirmation on this to determine what our opportunities and potential issues could be. I'll circle back around with him today on that and if he gives us the all clear we will circle back around to schedule.
Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime!
Below is his 2nd response to me later today.
Jerry, I had a brief chat with our trusted friend and he's still not recommending an installed radar for the Lucid Air at this time. His concerns included some failures in the car due the the added electronics on the 12v system and a battle with the service shop at LUCID regarding the associated warranty. Doesn't sound like something we want to get involved with until there's a more solid answer from reliable resources.
Sorry I don't have better news. Let me know if you have questions.
Best,
Nick
