en.Wedoany.com Reported - Lucid is recalling 2,039 Air Pure RWD vehicles due to an inverter fault. The electric vehicle manufacturer stated that these vehicles are equipped with its Gen 4 inverter, where internal connectors may suffer friction damage during operation, potentially leading to signal interruption and module failure.

If the connector is damaged, the inverter will be unable to convert direct current (DC) into the alternating current (AC) required to drive the motor, and the vehicle may lose all power while driving. All recalled vehicles were produced between September 13, 2023, and December 12, 2024.

Lucid first noticed an inverter failure in March 2025 on a vehicle used by a U.S. fleet operator. Initial analysis attributed the fault to fleet usage, as these vehicles had significantly higher mileage than private users, but subsequent failures also occurred on non-fleet Air Pure RWD models. As of March 2026, the company has recorded 55 failures.

Instead of immediately replacing all inverters, Lucid plans to first push an over-the-air (OTA) software update. This update can detect potential faults and trigger a warning on the dashboard, which must be cleared by a dealer. Only vehicles that receive the warning are eligible for inverter replacement; those without the warning are not applicable.
