There are 2 owner-reported driver assist & adas complaints for the 2022 Lucid Airin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
My lucid air’s emergency brakes have misjudged a situation and caused the car to lock its brakes for 3 seconds, making it inoperable. The first time happened on the interstate and the vehicle behind me had to go into the median to keep from rear ending me. I was completely stopped on a busy interstate. The second time, this morning, I was maneuvering around a vehicle into an open lane and the emergency brakes locked up. It had been raining and this caused the Lucid to slide directly into the vehicle I was maneuvering around. I was completely powerless to stop it. I have my emergency brakes set to lucids recommended setting - not it’s most sensitive setting. This is incredibly dangerous. The car does not consider it’s speed or road conditions before locking the brakes, taking the ability to maneuver away from the driver.
Lucid's adaptive cruise control implementation does not slow for stopped highway traffic. The adaptive cruise control will continue to speed at the set speed right into the rear end of stopped vehicles unless the driver disengages the adaptive cruise control. This easily could result in a high speed rear end collision. This needs to be fixed. The vehicle should slow and stop if necessary for stopped traffic. This is not a one off occurrence. This occurs all the time with all Lucid vehicles.
