Lucid Motors appears to have significantly addressed its early quality issues with the Gravity SUV’s hardware and software, but the company is still facing challenges: It has just announced a recall affecting over 4,000 Gravity SUVs due to a seat belt issue.
The automaker informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that during unrelated safety evaluations in January, it found that some anchors for the second-row seat belts in the SUV were not correctly welded. This situation heightens the risk that the seat belts might fail to secure passengers in the event of an accident.
Lucid Motors indicated that the issue stemmed from its seat supplier altering its manufacturing approach “without notice to or approval by Lucid.” The supplier has reverted to Lucid Motors’ original design specifications, and only Gravity SUVs manufactured before February 14, 2026 are impacted.
The automaker plans to inspect all Gravity SUVs involved in the recall and either install a bracket or replace the entire seat, based on the quality of the welding.
