Hello - My Air's warranty is expiring this November. Someone from the Lucid texted me for extending the warranty. Has anyone extended warranty on Air? I have not yet replied yet, but like to find out if anyone went through it. Thanks!
Warranty expiring in November

XCare does extended warranty for EVs, I don’t think Lucid itself does? What was the offer?

I'd be very suspect that the someone who texted you is actually from Lucid.
I recently bought out my Lucid lease through Tresl, which is now listed as a suggested financing partner for buyouts—somewhat buried under the lease-end options on the Lucid Financial website. I still have about a year left on my original warranty. During the transaction, Tresl sent me an options form that mentioned an extended warranty. When I asked for details, they told me to disregard that option because “it is not finalized yet.”
I’m not sure whether that refers to a Tresl offering or something involving Lucid, but it suggests an extended warranty option may be in the works. Nothing confirmed—just passing along what I encountered.

I’ve been asking Lucid about an extended warranty since I first bought the car in late 2021. The answer, even as late as last week, has always been, “we’re looking at it”. And I just got the estimate today to deal with the failed massage function in the driver seat which began just a couple of months after the warranty expired. $6,607. We will live without the massage, which we almost never used, anyway.

I almost wish the car never had massage seats. It’s easier to sell a car that never had the feature than to have to disclose a failed feature to a buyer, as it will just feed concerns about reliability.
I also wish I had not asked the price to repair. If a buyer were to ask, now that I know it I’d have to be honest. And that might be the nail in the coffin on a resale to a buyer worried about the cost of maintaining an out-of-warranty Lucid.

I just got text, and have not replied yet, I am going to call them tomorrow. Thanks!
Thanks! I bought it in Dec 2022 so I think this year 4 year warranty is getting expired. I will call them tomorrow and see
I better get it if they have in that case...I don't have massage seats though, Touring model.
I'm contemplating Xcare as well. My warranty is up in Dec. I thought Lucid might have one eventually but I guess not.
My plan is to purchase XCare next month for my 23 Air. There is a 30 day waiting period before the extended warranty takes effect. My Air's warranty ends at the end of December.
Thank you for pointing out the 30 days. I wasnt aware of that.

The Air has a 4 year warranty. You purchased yours in December of 2022?
Oh and if you don't mind me asking, what is the cost of the Xcare extended warranty? Thanks
Yes, Dec 30, 2022. Price varies based on current mileage and how many years/miles warranty you want. You can play with their pricing tool at https://www.xcelerateauto.com/xcare
Seeing as you are in CA as well, the one downside is that California does not allow them to sell directly to consumers. However, you can use an address in another state to purchase the warranty. I plan on using my brother’s CO address and then changing the warranty to my address in California. Based on what others have said in the Tesla forums that that is not an issue.
Also so people know, Lucid Service does not accept direct warranty payments like everyone else. You have to pay them yourself then submit reimbursement from the warranty company.
