What I thought were the brakes grabbing (in hold mode) a little too long as I begin to go forward seems more like a front end squeak or clunk. It only seems to happen when going forward. If I put the car in creep mode and alternate from forward to backward, it makes the sound going forward.

I contacted Lucid Riviera Service Center (West Palm Beach FL) in the morning, actually spoke to someone, who said the manager would call me back. That never happened. I emailed Riviera describing the sound .. I called a few more times, got VM and left a message. In the afternoon called Customer Care (only took 10 minutes to get someone) who said they couldn't help, BUT, would contact Riviera and ask them to call me back. Again, never heard anything back.

It's sounding like a noisy bushing - has anyone had something similar? I have 8,500 miles

YES, I do have a video - but it was too large to upload and I'll figure out how that can get posted.

Thanks /keith
 
I had a similar noise at low speeds especially when i made turns. Lucid Atlanta did a great job of road testing and checking different areas and finally figured out that either the grease packs on the shocks/struts had burst or were missing. After replacing the struts with grease packs, the noise is gone
