Lucid Group, Inc. is recalling hundreds of electric vehicles owing to a flaw that might cause its flagship model to lose power while driving.
According to a filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the company stated that faulty electrically actuated switches might harm the Lucid Air model years 2022-2023, resulting in the recall of 637 vehicles.
“This may lead to a loss of propulsion without pre-warning and may increase the risk of a crash,” the company said in the filing, which was submitted to the regulatory agency on March 23.
As of the end of last year, the Newark, California-based firm has delivered 4,494 Lucid Air cars.
According to the filing, Lucid’s service centres will free of charge update the car software and replace the defective switches.
