Car won’t go into DRIVE !

Hello everyone
My car in the last 3 days won’t go into DRIVE after it’s been charged and the cable is unplugged. It behaves like the charge cable is still plugged and the status wont change into READY position.
I have Lucid looking into it , but anyone with any experience on this issue please chime in.
Ps . I am on the latest 2.6.16 software version

Thanks in advance
Bobby
Probably a long shot but the only time I couldn't get into drive was when the key fob battery was low or dead.. Which does happen frequently if you don't keep you key isolated from the car by distance or an rfd pouch

That’s an interesting theory. I believe my fob has a new battery as it was replaced as part of my yearly maintenance a few years ago. However the more this happens the more I think the vehicle isn’t “ready” yet because of something it’s waiting for.
 
Update from my end- this continues to happen to my Touring every morning, irrespective of whether it had been charging or not. It has occasionally happened, albeit to a lesser degree, when being away from the car for a period of time (>4hours or so). Additionally, on multiple occasions now since the last update, the front panel is indicating the rear door is open when it is not. Multiple reopens and closures can sometimes work, other times it seems I just have to wait it out. Lucid is going to bring the car in for diagnostics. The driver monitoring also seems to randomly go active and inactive, despite no change in driving position or wheel position.

Extremely frustrating and, as another poster said, embarrassing when driving with people. Beautiful new car that won't work. Really hoping they iron these things out (and hopeful others aren't experiencing this to the same degree). The driving dynamics of the car are incredible and I can deal with occasional gremlins as a relatively early adopter, but glitches that render the car inoperable are inexcusable.

Maybe I have a lemon?
 
I've noticed ever since I got the car last year (SW v2.5) that if I hop in after stopping a charging session and immediately attempt to move the car, it takes 10 or 15 seconds before the car is ready and will shift into gear. Now, with 2.6.16, it takes 70-80 seconds.
If I didn't know this was a "thing," I would be quite concerned in those instances, as many clearly are by all the posts about this behavior post-2.6.16.
