Charge door panel came off

[Drendino]

Got out of my car to find the charge port panel gone! Is 3M tape really what holds this in place?

Looks like a part where some piece of plastic broke off near the center

Yes, it does. I don’t even understand how that is possible.

My steering wheel also started creaking today, so I’m about to get friendly with the service department.

Just got mine back, no creaks, felt tape is king! Maybe someone pried it off?

Felt tape is the fix to the creek? Interesting.

The panel was on when I got in the car and off when I got out, so not vandalism. I hope none of the other panels start falling off. Bizarre.

Felt is a temporary fix not a permanent fix. At least that is what the Scottsdale service center told me.

Correct.

Do they have a long term fix yet?

They are redesigning parts of the steering wheel. Or maybe the felt is the long term fix. The creaking comes from the plastic rubbing against other plastic, so if no rub no creak!

I was told by Millbrae SC that there will be a technical service bulletin for the steering wheels once more parts are available.

I brought it upon myself because an hour earlier I was bragging to a Tesla owner that the GT doesn’t have any creaks or squeaks.

hopefully mobile service can at least take car of the charge port door!

My seat has started creaking.

Lolwut. I don’t know how to feel about this.

I've had the passenger seat creak from day 1. Every time Lucid goes to look at it the creak stops, Fricken annoying as it just comes and goes

was told the same as well.

Perhaps all of these issues will cause the mobile service fleet to be increased significantly by the time I get my Pure. One small positive.
My condolences to those having issues.

Thank you. They are coming tomorrow to install a spare cover, but I think there is a chance they are going to have to repaint that side of the car if the new one doesn’t blend well. They haven’t had this issue yet, so I don’t think they know how it will work.

I am impressed with Lucid’s service department. They really want to fix the issues in a timely manner. It takes the stress out if it knowing that they are on it.

My guess is that they can do it. I just hope that it blends well so they don’t have to take the car back in to repaint the whole side of the car.
