Flaps hanging under

[borski]

This just happened to me and called Customer Care and sent a pic of the air dam hanging down. They schedulede mobile service to repair and they were here today to repair. I was dissappointed when they charged me $67 to do a repair that from my perspective should have been covered under warranty. I phoned CS to ask about it after the repair and was told it was not covered under the 4 year warranty as something must have hit it to break it loose was also told it they just had to reattach it they would not have charged me for it. The part was still hanging there and they used some type of clip to attach it to the car so not quite sure why they said it needed to be replaced. Most expensive car I have ever owned and first car that factory warranty was not honored. Dissappointed with Lucid policy and will share with anyone who asks me about the car.

It is a piece of the car that broke off while you were driving due to it scraping or hitting something. That's on you, not them; it's not a defect. Those are made to break off if dragged, so that they don't take the bottom of your car with them, but don't drag them on things.

Sometimes easier said than done because the clearance is quite low, but no lower than plenty of other low cars.

Also, that piece is not strictly required; having it improves efficiency somewhat, but it is not a safety issue. Not like anything is going to overheat.

Are these still holding strong, @Bobby?

This is not uncommon as these air dams are intended to be easily dislodged. You lost the two pop-off fasteners in the rear. I don't know why Lucid does not provide a couple of them with the car when delivered. I suppose you can get replacement fasteners at any auto parts store. I've tried a few but never found any that fit = I have no idea what they look like, or what the specs are. I had both of mine in the same situation as yours. They will detach when you hit a parking concrete stop or a transition slope like from the street to driveway when the angle too steep. It's no big deal...all these seemingly small aerodynamic tweaks combine to make it one of the slipperiest cars ever built. Fortunately for me the service center is only 10 miles away = had mine replaced at regular service.

In the meantime I used duck tape to hold them up.

Lucid should offer a bag of them on their website, along with the hats and shirts and other swag...or at least show us a picture / give us the specs.

Anyone have a photo of the fasteners ?

I went to Amazon and bought the bag of 200 assorted GOOAC universal plastic fender clips, $7.28. The clips are all in mini bags and nicely sorted by type. I ended up using the ones with the threaded shank and after a couple of days still all good. Very easy to do and there are videos you can search for so you can see how to do it.

I used two from an assortment I purchased at Harbor Freight.
