I don’t understand. Are you hoping to set a different location for a homelink button? Why would you do that? Do you have two garage openers that use one remote?
In my Jags, it gives you three buttons on the bottom of the rear view mirror to set. I have mine set to my garage and my parents garage since I still drive the XJ from time to time. Sold my XF for my Lucid but both cars have these buttons. Maybe this is what the OP is referring to.
That was an ingenious solution to the same exact problem. I really hope Lucid does the same exact thing. I can’t imagine it would be hard since it’s already geofenced.
Came here to post the same thing! Lucid could use the DD control button on the left side of the wheel to achieve the same thing.
Oh I have 2 places, each one has a garage door, however the homelink only recognizes and drops down the buttons when I reach the "home" location and there's no way to set 2 "homes" and won't do it for work or other locations.
Oh, that’s not how the geofencing works. It shouldn’t have anything to do with your “home” location. It just has to do with where you set your homelink up. If you set up your second garage door while in front of it, it should geofence that one to your second place.
OMG I was told it had to do with the home address location, this is so much better, I like my car 5% more now
Ya, all auto garage doors will have a safety beam across the opening. These sensors are mandated and regulated by UL standards and mandated by federal law, so malfunctions are not a real concern. Only edge cases like the sensor being lower than your car's clearance (not likely with the Lucid Air) or the rear bumper poking out over the beam.
The current position of the homelink button on the cockpit panel doesn't work well for me at all, even if it did come down when backing out of garage. Maybe it's my long legs, but I sit far back to the point that reaching buttons on the cockpit panel are always a pita. I think it would work much better down on the pilot panel.
Looks like a pretty cool product
I just picked up my Air and was surprised at the way the HomeLink is accessed, which I think is awkward. Put it back on the rearview mirror with three buttons.
Even the lower pilot panel or steering wheel would be nice since it's much closer (given that we're never going to get physical buttons on the rearview mirror with a software update lol). I agree though the existing location is a stretch when you're sitting in a driving position.
Brilliant! We can't have our friends thinking their Civics have better homelink functionality than our Lucids!!
Yes. I wasn't expecting a new mirror but for future builds. LOL We aren't going to get a new steering wheel either.
I meant like the rivian feature where they remap the one of the existing features on the steering wheel when you’re near your garage
Mine has always worked, when arriving menus drops down when I am about 500-100 feet away, it also drops down when I back out of my garage and departing, with cameras on.. I "always" allow location services, is the only thing I can think of, it has worked that way since the day I got the car. Audi uses a location where you dont even have to hit a button when you arrive, instead of giving a drop down menu, it automatically opens your garage, which I think is better.. That feature can be turned on or off with Audi..
Could you please send some videos of that happening? I haven't heard of any other owners that have this functionality. Thank you.
