Just Ordered a used 2022 Launch Edition R1S from Rivian with 109 miles on it

[mclark2112]

So my lease is up in March, and I have been combing the interwebs for another Gen1. I have been waiting for the perfect vehicle, and I think I found it! Launch Green with Forest Edge interior. I just reserved it on the Rivian preowned site. 109 miles! Where was this car that it only has 109 miles? It's being sold by Rivian, and has a super clean Carfax. I am sure my friends at the Service center will be seeing me a bit as I figure out all the early R1S issues, cause with 109 miles, I'll be reliving 2023 all over again. But wow.

It's off the Rivian site now, but here is the cars.com listing: https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/ea0ec291-827a-4fb5-9461-0d546d7a130b/

109 miles in 3 years tells me it's been sat around somewhere for a long time doing nothing. In these cases, I wonder how the HV battery was stored (what level of charge and how often did they charge it). Maybe I worry unnecessarily about these things, but it might be useful to see if Rivian will provide you with its history.

I will be asking my guide a lot of questions. It still has 2 years of warranty, which is plenty to work out all the issues. But I am still looking at this as a bridge to an R2. The guys at the Trenton service center have been fantastic the last couple years, so I am sure they will give me the skinny.

For the record, I am very skeptical too.

Nice find!

That’s a beauty. Congrats. If you have suspension noises, push them hard to get the upgrades.

Better hope someone didn’t just write down estimated range as mileage. That would be real funny.

This is a great find. Wow!

Now it's not on Cars.com. What did you pay for it?

 

[mclark2112]

$64k, a little more than I wanted to spend. But, 109 miles, and my dream color scheme.

And the order was cancelled by Rivian. They say it didn't pass their inspections.

Oh no! Will they deal with it and still let you purchase or is that it?
