2023 LUCID AIR Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2023 Lucid Air has 11 recalls, the most serious being multiple issues where the high-voltage contactors or software failures can cut drive power without warning while the vehicle is in motion, raising the risk of a crash. Three separate recalls address this loss of drive power: the contactors that send energy to the motors can open unexpectedly, a communication fault can trigger the high-voltage interlock to disconnect power mid-drive, and a software fault tied to adaptive cruise control can also drop drive power suddenly. An additional software recall covers the inverter failing to handle a power module fault properly, again cutting drive power without warning. Visibility is a recurring theme across several recalls. The windshield defroster can fail to clear ice and frost, leaving the driver with a blocked view. Wiper arm nuts can loosen and cause the wipers to stop working entirely. Three separate recalls cover the rearview camera either failing to display an image when reversing or showing a delayed or inaccurate picture of what is behind the vehicle, with some of these issues affecting specific software versions or trim configurations. There is also a comfort and safety issue with the rear seat heaters: temperature monitoring can stop working and allow the seats to overheat, raising the risk of a burn to rear passengers.
