Lucid stock fell sharply in midday trading on Tuesday after an electric-vehicle newsletter suggested the company was considering filing for bankruptcy.
Lucid didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment about the report...
I noticed on my front passenger door, the paint started to “bubble”. It feels as if the paint deformed. What would cause this, eg rust bubble? And is it covered by warranty?
Saw this on Reddit, and felt bad for a fellow Rivian driver who was falsely accused of a crime in Colorado, because of a Flock video clip.

BYD flash charging.
This tech seems like a game changer for EVs. @OutofSpecKyle tested it and got 800kW top charging speed and got a full charge in 8 minutes.
Holy cow! Will it ever show up in the U.S.?
With the announcement of the R2, I thought about what it’d take to get a new Rivian. I like having a pickup, so I’d most likely get another R1T.
My 2023 R1T is finally in great shape, after numerous service visits (knock on wood!) and I’m reluctant to have to repeat that experience with a new...
I had this rattle that would appear whenever the AC condenser came on. I tried everything to try to identify the source of the rattle.
After about a month of trial and error, it turns out this metal plate by the brake pedal wasn’t snug. So the vibration from the AC condenser would resonate...

I’ve had my R1T for three years, and the rattle under the front dash mesh has been an ongoing issue.
After much trial and error, I determined this plastic piece, which I presume helps with defrost air vectoring, has been the cause of the rattles all along. I decided to just get it out. Poorly...

Now that $7500 tax credit on leases aren’t available, it seems Rivian is incentivizing purchases with low loan rates.
1.99% for 60 months
2.49% for 72 months
I played around with the calculator. It appears you have to put a reasonable minimum sufficient down payment to get these rates. (Or...
Here’s a new issue I haven’t seen here before. My left front wheel seems to be not centered properly in its well—it’s too forward. Right wheel is centered properly.
And on the left side, this seems to be causing rubbing inside the well.
I’ve created a service ticket. But has anyone else seen...
