2025 Lucid Air Pure — anyone else: Apartment charging without a dedicated garage outlet

EuroNomad49Community StarterJul 13, 20262025 Lucid Air PureNashville

I can charge at work sometimes but not at home. For people living in apartments, what combination of public charging, workplace charging and occasional fast charging has actually been practical? If I fix it I'll come back and update the thread.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2025 Lucid Air so service can see what you saw. Then you'll know the next fork. This is from a 2025 Lucid Air in Nashville. Not gospel, but it saved me a headache. I'd rather be boring and correct. If it repeats twice more I'll book time.

Quick add on that: On the 2025 Lucid Air, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. Then you'll know the next fork. On “anyone else: apartment charging without a dedicated,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Do that first. I refuse to clear codes until someone else sees them.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2025 Lucid Air charge sessions. I'd do that before spending real money. Run the total, not the monthly, before you commit. No warning lights, which is why I'm documenting it.

1972 Chevrolet C10 — no crank with full dash power, then it starts later

Twice I have had full lights and accessories but no crank. After waiting a few minutes it starts normally. Battery terminals look clean. What would you want to measure during the actual failure?
