With 14,000 miles on my AGT, I’ve had my share of occasional frustrations with Lucid customer service. But the last 24-hours have replaced those experiences. I want to thank Patrick, Ryan and the service team in Rocklin, California, for the incredible level of service they provided, well beyond any expectations I could envision.
Wednesday afternoon, I got in my car after lunch and headed home. On the way a clanging, metal-on metal noise could be heard and increased whenever I encountered a bump in the road. It sounded like it was under my seat. I suspected it was something with the front suspension, but after a thorough examination I could see nothing amiss. Now I was worried since I planned to leave this coming Tuesday on a 1,300 mile road trip during Thanksgiving week.
Thursday morning, I contacted Ryan in Rocklin and explained my problem. I let him know my travel plans and even offered to drive the 100-miles from my home to the service center so they could determine if I should drive the car on my upcoming journey. I assumed they might be able to look at it and at least arrange a future service time to make the needed repairs. Given the lead time usually required for service I was getting bummed thinking that the trip I had been looking forward to was now in jeopardy.
It was about 10:00 AM and Ryan said he’d check with the service team and get back to me. A few minutes later he called to say that the service manager, Patrick, was delivering a car and picking up a loaner in a community only 20 miles away from where I lived. (Divine providence!) He said Patrick was willing to stop by when he was done with that delivery. I was thankful that at least someone would be able to give my car a look.
Patrick arrived about 2:00 PM and after a brief test drive he said he thought it was related to a sway bar bolt coming loose. After rolling around on the ground in his dress shirt and pants, he said everything appeared tight and he couldn’t identify the problem. He offered to take my car to the service center and leave me the loaner he had just picked up.
At noon today I got a call from Ryan saying my car is ready and can they deliver it. At 3:30 PM my AGT is back in my driveway, repaired and ready for my upcoming road trip!
Indeed, the sway bar fasteners had come loose and were no longer torqued correctly. They replaced both front sway bar end link fasteners and torqued them to spec. They also verified my wiper arms were properly torqued, even though it had recently been done during a regular service. While test driving, they noticed some additional rattles and removed the parcel shelf, insulated the rear corners and insulated a trim piece near a c-pillar.
Contacted, diagnosed, repaired and delivered 200-miles roundtrip in 24-hours! Patrick, Ryan and the Rocklin service team are incredible.
