Gravity Bugs / Issues

[BiruBoy11]

As far as I can tell it’s two vehicles on here so far?

To be clear, my issue was with the front drive unit, not the RDU. Service doc said something about an 'inverter fault.' I'm trying to focus on the positives and, I have to say, I drove with the degraded FDU for a few days and the car still performed better than any other car I've driven (under 50 mph because of the related speed governance.)

Here's some context that no one asked for. I've driven EVs since 2014, my first one being the BMW i3 (battery only, 90 mile range.) Ironically the only car I experienced zero issues. I've had three drive unit failures that required unit replacement over the last 10 years. First one was my 2018 Tesla Model 3 Performance that would intermittently lose power at highway speeds for a couple seconds and then come back. Extremely alarming. Tesla questioned that I was operating the car correctly until I insisted they look at it. The second one was my leased 2023 Lucid AGT. Complete RDU lock up and failure, about a block from my house. Was able to limp home with severely degraded performance and very red visual and loud auditory messages from the car. Then there was this one with the GDE, relatively tame compared to the other two. I'm hoping my adventure with faulty drive units is over but acknowledge that I've signed up willingly to be an early adopter of advanced mobility tech and I really don't regret it. That being said, I'm not going to get into an EVTOL until I know for absolute certainty there won't be an 'inverter fault.'

My second row seat squeak is back after being addressed at the service center. I can minimize the squeak by leaving the second row folded flat, but that doesn't completely eliminate it. Has anyone had this fixed and had the fix last more than a week? I've had it fixed twice and neither fix has lasted. If so, can you please detail the fix so I can run it by my mobile tech?

I had this problem out of the gate and the service center in Torrance, California sniffed it out and fixed it. I'm at 3,500 miles on my GDE and the squeak hasn't returned. Ironically the Torrance Service Center hadn't even been allocated a GDE yet (at that time)but they were able to fix it.

@hmp10 - good grief, I am really sorry to hear you are going through all these issues. You're scaring me about my impending delivery. I hope you are able to get some resolution soon.

Not sure if this is a DD2Pro bug but my Gravity does not adjust speeds around curves on the highway. When drive assist is on, it just takes curves at whatever the speed limit is65, 70, 75… Kind of like a 16 year old with a new license! I have to take over for most real curves at highway speed. I am sure they’ll address in an update.

I don't think it's a "bug" per se, just the feature as it exists today.

DD2Pro is not very smart right now. Last week there was a big truck to our right so it stated "adding space on right" and biased to the left of the lane. Then it immediately started shaking the steering wheel as part of the lane departure warning on the left.

Interesting. My lane biasing has been quite good and I appreciate the way it informs me. I was curious about the speed adjustment in curves as they list that as a feature available today and it’s definitely making zero adjustments for me. Whatever the set cruise speed is, it’s flying around the corner.

I notice in my AGT loaner with DDPro, it does lower the speed for curves. I realize it’s DDPro vs DD2Pro.

As you said, it’s likely not a bug, just a capability they have to refine. Versus the persistently three minute ahead clock - that is a bug.
