Drive System Error / Loss of Propulsion Mid-Drive

[studdross]

My Gravity Touring threw up a “pull over safely” warning while driving 50mph. It happened immediately after changing from standard braking regen to high.

No propulsion, the vehicle would only maintain current speed (but if the speed went down it would only coast at that speed or less, so on and so forth).

Luckily able to pull over into a neighborhood and opened the alert to see Dive System Error and the vehicle would not go back into gear; pressing the brake to shift to D or R would retrigger the error. Tried soft and hard resets. Eventually raking the key fob away for 20 minutes allowed it to reset and able to drive it home, no further issues so far.

We’re at less than 500 miles, excited to see what the service follow-up and process looks like…

Given that the error is red, and not yellow, my suspicion is a hardware problem, not software.

Sorry to hear about your trouble, OP! I hope it gets resolved quickly. <3

I’ve found that one of the failure modes that gives that message is a fault in the low voltage system.
Definitely need that functioning for anything else to work.
If,in an ICE car, you lost power to your ecu you’d be just as dead in the road.

To follow up and close this out: Lucid service checked the error logs and data from my vehicle, both remotely and later onsite for a mobile service appointment, and could not find anything to flag as the culprit. The issue has not appeared again. The vehicle was under software version 3.6.0 when the error occurred, it's been under that, 3.6.3 and 3.6.4 with no issue. Fingers crossed it stays that way...

I had the same problem a few months after I got my 23 touring. They replaced the rear drive unit to fix whatever the problem was. No problems since then.
