Ever Since I Got My Lucid, I Can't Play The Piano!

[Lucken]

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I don't know how many times I have to tell you.

Please don't contact customer care about this for at least ONE WEEK

If, then, you are still having this issue and/or haven't seen the update and/or haven't sold the car and/or haven't forgotten about it and/or haven't discovered actually oops you like it this way after all: then call customer care. or text them, preferably.

And if it's hardware, contact service directly. You can do it through the app. And be nice, goddamn it. There's people who hold those wrenches; treat them that way.

P.S. just buy the f***ing tire certs.

I read his response as being totally in jest since he was basically responding to the sarcastic comment, ‘I can’t play the piano after the update’ and mcr16’s response that there wasn’t a spreadsheet category for that. I really hope that’s the case, otherwise I’m frightened.

Two years and ~ 20,000 miles.

After Mobile Service sorted out an intermittent issue with a control module (replaced) in the first few weeks,

the car has been flawless. I'm already shopping for a Dream Edition ... just afraid to tell the wife what I'm up to.

Yeah, I'm ready to go FULL LUCID.

Actually, I never could play the piano, but I wanted to join in with all the recent OP's complaining about everything under the sun. By what insane streak of luck have I had zero problems of significance in 9.5 months and 10.5k miles? Or, maybe something else is afoot.

I have same issue, what is the build date on your car

I mean, have you learned nothing in all your years of marriage?! Eventually she will forgive you for almost anything. Go big or go home, just order the Sapphire already

What I have found almost spooky about our Lucid Air is its "self-healing" properties. By this I mean that, not only has its software vastly improved since early days, it is now a physically better car than when we first got it.

We are on our second Dream Edition, having gotten the first one (No. 154) late in 2021 and then replacing it with another (No. 395) when the first one was wrecked. Both cars had the early teething problems you might expect from a new model from a new company. But the constant care we promptly received from the Lucid service teams, both mobile and in Service Centers, has left us with the quietest, most solid, most problem-free car I have ever owned.

Lucid Air buyers today should not have to go through such an experience, which is more the province of early adopters. And most indications are that they don't. What my experience has taught me is that the Lucid Air is, at the fundamental level, a rock-solid product. In over 50 years of owning cars, I've never had one that was in better physical shape after almost three years than when I bought it.

Everything works as intended. Nothing rattles. Nothing squeaks. Nothing is showing even normal wear and tear. And the car still takes off like a scalded cat and handles like it's on rails.

By this point with all my other cars, I was already noodling which new car should be its replacement. With the Lucid Air, I just scratch my head wondering what could come close to it in power, handling, room, ride, and solidity. There sure ain't nothing on the horizon yet.

I"m too old for the Sapphire.

I'm become the cliche of an old fart: cane, hat, same clothes every day, yell at kids on my lawn, read newspapers , vote in EVERY election, have reading glasses all over the house but can't find them, generally ill-tempered as are all old men suffering arthritis in every joint.

so no. I mean, yes...if the price is right. The Dream Edition is now 60% off. I can wait.

.... upon refection ... if I saw one locally I'd probably buy it, not for the speed but to feel how the torque steering works...or should I say, not feel the car going out of my inept control.

I bet you’re fun at parties.

I was actually voted most likely to entertain people at parties, so there is that.

I talking about the premise of the post and posts like it that get all defensive of Lucid, not the middling dad jokes.

Threads and posts like the OP's edge towards Tesla FanBoi zone. There are and will be issues, its part of the deal when you buy from what is essentially a start up. Our Air was down for 2 weeks with various issues, but the service center was great and ZERO complaints. Denying that this reality exists is like shielding your kids from failure, its not doing them any favors. Buy a Lucid and you have a higher probability of issues over a legacy ICE car, but they are temporary, they are working hard to push software updates, and its really a fantastic car. Setting and having realistic expectations often results in greater long term satisfaction.

I personally get mildly annoyed when I see some owners here jump on others who report a problem or complain or show any normal frustration from a problem they encountered. Worse when a minority start throwing out conspiracy theories about posters being nefarious implants who are only here to trash the brand for Tesla's sake. I personally think we should chill. The absolute majority of us here love the car, paid a good deal for it and never regretted it. If we have problems and get frustrated and vent, that's normal behavior. I might complain casually about my kida, I still love them.

All that said, this post is hilarious . Well played .

14,000 miles, 14 months. No problems. No regrets.
I have the soft close doors One of many great features of my Lucid Touring.
