Without warning, the vehicle began jerking violently and decelerated to a stop in a live traffic lane, displaying a \"Drive System Fault\" message. Throughout the event, the vehicle would not respond to accelerator or brake input. The vehicle came to rest in a moving lane of traffic. No vehicle was following us at that moment; had one been, we would have been struck from behind. After restarting the vehicle, I was able to move it off the roadway at roughly one mile per hour, with the right rear wheel catching and refusing to rotate freely. The vehicle was then undriveable. It was towed to Lucid the same day and remains in your possession. This was not an inconvenience. It was an unwarned loss of propulsion and loss of vehicle control, in traffic, with minor children in the car. At highway speed, the outcome could have been catastrophic. The right rear wheel\u2019s inability to rotate indicates a mechanical failure within the rear drive unit or driveline, not a recoverable software condition.

While operating the vehicle in reverse, it experienced a sudden, violent, and uncommanded surge in acceleration. Simultaneously, the braking system completely failed to respond to the driver's input, resulting in an initial collision with a vehicle parked across the street. The driver managed to carefully maneuver and limp the vehicle back home to the residential driveway.  Upon arriving at the driveway, the vehicle suffered a secondary, severe surge/acceleration event combined with another total failure of the braking system, causing the vehicle to crash into the home garage. Throughout both incidents, the driver firmly applied the brakes, but the vehicle's braking system was completely overridden and unresponsive due to a catastrophic electronic or software failure.  Failure Symptoms & Evidence: Immediately following the system failures, the vehicle's instrument cluster explicitly illuminated a critical warning: \"Brake System Fault \u2013 Drive with caution and contact Customer Care immediately.\" This confirms that the vehicle's critical safety and braking systems actively faulted during the operational failure.  Despite this clear dashboard warning and objective technical failure, the insurance carrier and investigators have been slow to recognize the hardware/software malfunction, posing an extreme safety hazard to the driver, passengers, and the public. We strongly request NHTSA to investigate this dangerous unintended acceleration and brake failure defect in 2024 Lucid vehicles.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2024","productMake":"LUCID","productModel":"AIR","manufacturer":"Lucid USA, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11757529,"manufacturer":"Lucid USA, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"08/12/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"08/17/2026","vin":"50EA1GBA5RA","components":"POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"While operating the vehicle, I experienced a sudden and unexpected loss of propulsion accompanied by a Drive System Failure warning. An associated fault message was also displayed. The vehicle became immediately undrivable and required towing.  This matter is not being raised as a routine service concern. The critical issue is the abrupt and uncommanded loss of propulsion during active vehicle operation. Had this event occurred under different driving conditions\u2014such as highway speeds, dense traffic, or an intersection\u2014the potential safety consequences could have been severe, including elevated risk of collision.  A propulsion loss of this nature represents a potential safety hazard to vehicle occupants and surrounding road users. Accordingly, I am requesting that Lucid treat this matter as a formal PRODUCT SAFETY INCIDENT requiring engineering-level review, rather than a standard repair disposition.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2024","productMake":"LUCID","productModel":"AIR","manufacturer":"Lucid USA, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11675786,"manufacturer":"Lucid USA, Inc.","crash":true,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":1,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"12/16/2024","dateComplaintFiled":"07/24/2025","vin":"50EA1TEA3RA","components":"FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE","summary":"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\u2019s 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, completely unresponsive to my control. It plowed through a pedestrian walkway, a row of bushes, and crashed into the exterior wall of the YMCA building before shutting itself off. The steering wheel was also unresponsive during the unexpected acceleration. After the crash, the car shut itself down and would not restart. The crash caused injury to my neck, and it was a miracle that no one was behind me at the normally very busy parking lot. The sudden acceleration and loss of control over the car was terrifying. In addition, all other safety mechanisms such as automatic braking failed.
