I live in Buffalo and have had it happen multiple times last year and this year. It always resolves itself eventually. And I am not aware of any direct or indirect problems as a result. But I also share your concerns about this.It would be helpful to get a bit more definitive answer as to whether this is something that is Just Fine to drive with until things warm up and melt, or whether the noise (clicking, etc) indicates something that could or would eventually break. Those of you who've had this happen, did it resolve itself or not?
Just happened to be on the phone with Natick and they hadn't heard of issues, but it sure sounds like it could happen here in "wintry mix" territory of coastal Maine.
Mind you, that happens to all cars when gaskets are frozen.Similar to my concerns on the way the door handles respond after driving through the snow and parking outside while the snow continues. The loud cracking sound after hearing the handles trying multiple times to extend does not inspire confidence.

Doesn't this mean that Lucid and other manufacturers haven't designed this feature with necessary robustness?Mustang Mach-E: https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/active-grille-shutters-frozen-shut.23992/

Search Google and you’ll find dozens of other vehicles with the same problem.
Or that it doesn’t matter too much if it ices over, as it will eventually un-ice.Doesn't this mean that Lucid and other manufacturers haven't designed this feature with necessary robustness?
Okay, this is your Capitan of 747.Or that it doesn’t matter too much if it ices over, as it will eventually un-ice.
Omg Borski ! That looks like so much fun, is this track open for owners to test their cars on ? That looks like so much fun ! Thanks for the gentle reminder !This is a nice line but very untrue. Please stop spreading it. It has been tested extensively in both snow and freezing conditions. The AGS freezing isn’t limited to the Lucid Air, either.
And in case you only thought it was a recent thing, this is from 7 years ago:
Haha I have no idea where that is.Omg Borski ! That looks like so much fun, is this track open for owners to test their cars on ? That looks like so much fun ! Thanks for the gentle reminder !

Fairbanks sounds like fun, if we can pick up some copper river King Salmon on the way up NorthIf I recall ( but I may be mistaken) it was done near Fairbanks Alaska.
