- The defect
- Lucid USA, Inc. (Lucid) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Lucid Air vehicles. Under certain conditions, temperature monitoring for the rear seat heaters could become inoperative and result in the rear seats overheating.
- What it can cause
- Overheated rear seats can increase the risk of a burn injury.
- What the dealer does
- Lucid has released an over-the-air (OTA) software update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 11, 2023. Owners may contact Lucid customer service at 1-888-99-LUCID or 1-888-995-8243. Lucid's number for this recall is SR-23-05-0.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner. This one is fixed by a software update rather than a workshop visit.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 1,267 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 61% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
This site holds the complaint record for all 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 47 complaints with NHTSA, 28 of them before this campaign was filed. 3 of those name the seats, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in September 2022, 1 year before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 14 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V540000 (electrical system), 26V017000 (back over prevention), 25V670000 (back over prevention), 24V497000 (electrical system).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Lucid USA, Inc. with NHTSA on October 19, 2023 as campaign 23V708000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
