Here’s my first of more updates around addressing all the issues with my brand new R1S

First - steering wheel off center, pulls to the left under regen, alignment didn’t feel correct as the vehicle would dart left or right at random.

Service center just sent me this:

I hope this resolves the problems you had!

I wonder if Rivian has quality control to verify alignment before delivering vehicles. The initial analysis with all that red makes me think they don’t. I think they really need to get their processes perfected so they aren’t delivering problems to new customers.

I had mine in for an alignment a couple of weeks ago and had very similar results as yours. I also had some “bent bolts” that had caused damage to the rear sub-frame…which I have to believe happened pre-delivery. I had less than 4500 miles and none of which were off-road.

Is this something you had to ask for? Ive never been given anything like this. Have everyone noticed an improvement?

I was hoping they had improved this since the earliest builds. My factory alignment was so bad it ate the first set of tires in only 10k miles - toe was way off which also seems to be the case with both sheets posted here.

Glad this got fixed up...hopefully! Please let us know how it drives after the alignment.

Yes, for anyone getting an alignment request the alignment specs before and after print out. Take less than 2 mins for the tech to print it from alignment machine.
