Drove from LA to Portland. it was 110 plus for most of the trip with bad traffic. Car was great to Sacrament [from LA]. Then the ac disappeared, lane assist and blind spot, bluetooth, cruise control - all gone. No fan. Three + hours to Redding in 110 heat was sure fun. In Portland now [6/26] and nothing has come back so to a dealer on Monday. Everything crapped out after an Electrify America charge to 90%. The car charged well and drove beautifully. What was usually a 10 hour gas powered drive took 13. Driving with windows open because of nom ac made range estimation irrelevant.
The car is fixed [7/2] thanks to Jim Fisher Volvo in Portland. The service I got there was superb so a shout out to them and their service department. The problem was corrupt software. We got the car just in time for the 115 weather blast and for a 1000 mile trip down I5 to Los Angeles and had no problems at all; the car performed beautifully. With stops for charging, we found our trips took about 25-33% longer, but we were more rested with the more leisurely schedule [we're in our early 70s]. The percent battery remaining in maps in the central display was very accurate.
We met two Lucid cars out for a test drive - 500 mile range! One can dream

Glad you got the a/c and other problems fixed. Everybody seems to be having software issues. I think the hardware’s great, but the software just isn’t baked yet. Guess that’s a result of shipping the car with what seems to be a public beta software release…
