OTA Update 2.6.0

[TakeDuo]

Anyone w 2.6 update experience an alignment issue w the steering and dream drive? See my post today in the dream drive thread for details. But hearing now from SC that this update is messing w/ alignment. Example.. driving straight, the steering wheel is dutch about 5 degrees to the left. Was not like this prior to the update.

Actually, mine is doing this exact thing. I figured I hit a pothole or something to knock it out of alignment. But I’m with borksi idk how it could be software…

If this is happening, it’s not a wheel alignment issue; I have no idea how it could be. I mean of course I could be wrong, but I don’t see how software would mess with physical alignment. More likely a sensor is being screwy or something.

I just watched @Joelaron’s video. My car is not over correcting that badly to center on the line though. It hugs the dashed line now. However, the steering wheel offset is almost identical to the left.

Thank you for the question regarding language gating. I don't know the answer, but I will inquire with the appropriate team. Feel free to send bugs to me directly. I will make sure they get in front of the right people.

Thank you so much! I’ll send you the bugs/repro steps later this week!

Awesome!!!

I only see a front with no controls, anyone else having this issue? I use IPhone.

Two issues since the 2.6 update. First, the car keeps going offline and always offline when away from the home wifi.

The second issue is the scheduled charging which failed last night. It only started charging when my wife woke up the car to leave for work this morning. This has been a major issue for me. It is like rolling the dice. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I would like the to charge overnight when I plug it in. Everytime. My cheap Leaf does this 100%. Why can’t Lucid do something so simple as decent scheduled charging. It almost makes me want to get rid of the Lucid.

What charger? And when is your schedule set to and when did you plug it in?

Asking because my scheduled charging used to do this but hasn’t in years (and works on 2.6) which is why I’m curious to see if we can find a root cause.

This only started on 2.6?

Two years ago, when my car was still new, Lucid in Costa Mesa ended up changing some sensors on the steering wheel column. This was after days of test driving, checking sensors, test driving some more, removing my FASTRAK transponder, test driving on the 55 yet again, checking cameras, and test driving even more…

All of this was because while freeway driving, my car seemed incapable of taking sweeping curves to the right. Before turning my car over to Lucid Service I took several videos to show Frank Collins and the service guys up at Costa Mesa.

Eventually, they arrived at the solution of changing out some sensors on the steering wheel column. HA or whatever it’s called now (Drive Assist?), has not exhibited that particular problem ever since.

Not sure if it's related to 2.6 or if I'm just imagining things, but the behavior when I charged to 80% yesterday was different than usual. In the past when I charge to 80% (always at home), when I come out to the car I have to wait for the car to try and charge again before removing the charging handle. It usually take 15-30 seconds for it to figure out it's charged to 80%. Yesterday, I was able to pull the handle out immediately...it didn't try to top up the charge. And when driving, the charge stayed at 80% for a bit. In the past, it would drop to 79% almost immediately.

Wondering if 2.6 changed the behavior, where an 80% charge is now closer to 81%?

Are you saying that when you are driving “straight and level”, in other words straight ahead, your steering wheel boss (hub) is tilted 5 degrees to the left? Inconvenient, and I don’t know why it would have happened in the first place post update, but it’s a fairly easy fix that can be performed by Mobile Service.

It's 100% software not calculating what the car is actually doing. You have to experience it to understand what is going on when driving. Everything 'physical' with the driving is spot on... the car drives straight and true. All cameras and steering were tested right in front of me yesterday. I watched the tech's laptop screen as he ran the calibration test, and there was nothing out of tolerance that warranted attention for calibration.. Same w/ the steering wheel.. i watched it go through it's calisthenic calibration and balance back to zero when it was done. But then you drive the car.. if I turn on the parking cameras and look at the top down view and see the dotted line that represents the angle that the wheels are aimed compared to the hard line where the car actually is... if the wheel is perfectly straight, all of the guide lines are straight. As soon as you start rolling, the car is now veering right. I have to turn the wheel to the left in order to go straight... but the top down view is showing me the dotted line leaning to the left... so the car software is assuming that I constantly turning left. NONE of this was happening before the 2.6.0 update. Thinking back to earlier this week, i recall parking at work, thinking I was perfectly straight in the parking spot.. but when I got out, my car was angled about 5 degrees to the left! But the top down view of me in the spot.. showed me on screen that I was perfectly straight in the spot.

Another thing.. I see a lot of replies "that's why you should never use auto drive features"... but I want to. I sit in San Francisco traffic for hours every day and love when the car can crawl me home in stop and go traffic. That is why i checked the DD Pro box when I bought the car. So this is an important feature for me.

I had two visits from the mobile tech. Both times, the wheel was calibrated to straight with wheels dead straight. I watched it calibrate.

YES!! This happened to me this week every time I went to unplug in the garage! It was not like this before the 2.6.0 update.

Okay, I stand corrected! That sure sounds like an issue with 2.6 then. I apologize (sincerely) for jumping the gun; I should have been more curious about it first, but it sounded very much like what we’d seen before. I should know better than to assume, and that’s on me!

Another thing.. I see a lot of replies "that's why you should never use auto drive features"... but I want to.

Yeah, I completely agree with you. I love Drive Assist and use it all the time, so I’d very much want it working too.

I always have to unlock the car to unplug the handle, but once unlocked, I can pull the handle out any time regardless of charge level.
Could it be that you were just waiting for the car to unlock in those 15-30 seconds?

Same, fwiw, and this is how it’s supposed to work. With an unlocked car, you can unplug at any time.

I experienced a weird issue with 2.6.0 this morning. The middle and left screens in the cockpit were black and the car didn’t start when pressing the brake pedal.
Logo reset didn’t fix it, but the Mic+X+Brake reset fixed it. I’ve never had anything like this happen to me over my 10+ months of owning it and driving it on a daily basis, but I’m glad I know all kinds of resets to quickly fix it myself.

No problems for me since the 2.6.0 update, I'm in Alaska.
