Absolutely beautiful engineering and a gem of a car to drive — especially for enjoying music.
That said, the software side has had its share of problems, and fixes are taking longer than expected.
My latest software update didn’t finish, and it’s been over two weeks now with the update message stuck on the screen.
Key fob issues: After the 3.2.1 update, I thought these were resolved. But my first trip to the golf course in this car, then a meeting at a new location, and finally a grocery store run proved otherwise. At the grocery store, the kids were in the car and it simply wouldn’t move because the key wasn’t detected. Thankfully, the A/C was working so they were comfortable. The workaround-works 70% of the time- Walk more than 100 feet away from the car, then return — and suddenly it detects the key.
Other quirks: Sometimes the wipers start moving the moment I get into the car. I’m guessing this will be fixed with the next update.
Still no HomeLink, and the cell phone charging pad isn’t working.
And also the quality of the assembled line workers for sure have to be improved for lucid to reach great heights that it deserves.
For all the brilliant engineering that’s gone into this car, the software issues really need to be ironed out — especially before reviewers get their hands on it.
