      <description>The Lucid drive assist feature gets confused by lane splitting motorcycles in California. This incident has occurred to me multiple times, including most recently today. I drive in the high occupancy vehicle Lane, and during rush hour in the evening commute the left lane drives at somewhere between 20 to 30 mph. Lane splitting motorcycles are able to go slightly faster than that, at around 30 to 4</description>

      <description>UNKNOWN.  I leased a 2025 Lucid Air on June 19, 2025, and quickly began to experience a sense of inner ear fullness and dizziness from driving the vehicle that often lasts for days.  I immediately notified Lucid, but the company did not attempt a repair or suggest measures to address the issue.  Instead, the company said that I was on my own and stopped responding.  I suspect that the issue is roo</description>

      <description>On [XXX], at approximately [XXX], I arrived at the YMCA parking lot for my yoga class (located on [XXX], Mountain View, CA). While waiting for a parking spot, I put my Lucid Air in reverse to back up slightly. Generally, Lucid’s strong regenerative braking stops the car when the accelerator is released. However, this time, when I lifted my foot, the car unexpectedly accelerated at high speed, comp</description>

I brought the vehicle to Lucid’s Tysons, VA service center due to a thumping sensation in the steering wheel while turning. On [XXX] Lucid diagnosed the issue as internal play in the bracket that mounts the driver airbag. Instead of replacing the bracket or steering wheel assembly, the technician applie</description>

      <description>Myself and numerous other Lucid Air drivers of all different trim levels are unable to reliably shift out of park and into drive or reverse when entering our cars. This problem has gotten worse with a recent software update and Lucid seems to be acting slowly to fix it. It is a very dangerous thing to have a car that cannot be moved into drive or reverse when needed. Moving the stalk up or down do</description>

      <description>Following the OTA software update to V2.6.16, the car will randomly refuse to shift out of Park and into either Drive or Reverse.  This occurs after the car has been recently plugged in to charge as well as randomly regardless of charging activity.  This is a significant safety issue in that the car will not move despite having foot on the brake.</description>

      <description>On Saturday [XXX], in Chino Hills, CA (ZIP Code 91709), my 2023 Lucid Air Touring experienced a sudden unintended acceleration event. Shortly after releasing the accelerator pedal to obtain a parking pass, the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated at a high speed, resulting in a collision with the pavement and a post on the premises.  This incident bears similarities to the all-weather mat recall; howe</description>
