Lucid Group recalls about 200 Air electric vehicles due to potential safety concerns

Electric car maker Lucid Group said it would be recalling more than 200 of its premium sedans over possible safety concerns, sending its stock down nearly 5%.

The California-based company said it was possible that the A-pillar damper - a part used in the suspension - in its sedans was improperly assembled by a supplier.

The company is not aware of any failure of any part in its electric vehicles, but it expects said damper to be incorrectly installed in about 1% of potentially affected vehicles.

The company began production of the $169,000 electric sedan last September, after delays caused by quality issues. It has since shipped a small number of electric vehicles.
