1st time to use DCFC
So far on our 1000 + mile trip and charging now on 4th FC all have been Tesla.
1) I signed up to get a monthly membership with Tesla for discounted pricing. It’s a shame that Rivian doesn’t offer this for their customers or when using the Rivian chargers have a discounted rate like Tesla offers their customers.
That’s the reason I’m only using Tesla on this trip.
2) I’ve had two ghost windshield wiper occurrences so far.
3) using autonomy driving it doesn’t seem to like 18 wheelers very much. I’ve had a dozen of fast breaking or slowing down when approaching them on the freeway.
4) this economy driving is nice to give you a break but it’s very annoying since three seconds it populates keep your eyes looking ahead five seconds it chimes the same and this is annoying because you need to look at the screen for charging ports restaurants, etc. since that’s how you actually operate the car.
With that being said unless they change that annoying alert or give you an option to select the lawyers reading to turn it off I would not pay for it. I’m having it on my free trial now.
5) twice I’ve had to move to a different charging station and it says after 15 seconds remove charger cable try again, so I actually did that but still didn’t help so moved to another location
Another charging station stop charging had to remove cable and insert again it’s working fine now as I’m typing
6) All of the sudden out of the blue twice the brakes were hit or it’s slowed down rapidly, and populates, (engaging into all-wheel-drive?)
That was a little nerve-racking
7) a few times, mowers operating on or near the feeder of a freeway the R1T slowed down
this is only an update of what we encountered in the last day
