I got the dreaded replace 12v battery warning earlier this month, I was out of the battery warranty for only 2 months when it failed. So I was going to be on the hook for all $800 despite having asked for some relief. (By they way, I heard they were only charging for one battery in the two...

I'll add a data point that I complained about this back in December of 2023 where I noted a, what I thought was a large, front end drop over about a week. Was told that it was within spec. I wasn't too happy about it but I can't make them do warranty repairs I guess. It did get progressively...

i did this long ago and they kept it a week and told me it’s within spec. 🤷‍♂️

My initial thought would be 12v battery but the wipers going is weird. not that I know much anyway 😀

That is a lower rating than I would have expected, but that same equipment is going to be in the R1S too. Of course if it’s really only driving 50 miles per shift, it is a moot point. Are these vehicles shared over multiple shifts? I honestly don’t know.

This is cool, and I love Rivian. But I have to ask the logic behind the police investing in a Rivian vehicle. The only thing I can come up with is long term cost advantage. Functionally the reality is high up front cost, slow charging and lower range. Again,I think it’s neat and looking...

I’m not sure how it happened but we wound up with all cars being EVs started with an Hundai ionic (not the 5, the early one) wound up being the car we drove everywhere. Then we traded our Audi Q5 for the model 3, traded the ionic for the Rivian R1T, traded the 3 for a Y later, then we inherited...

The 12 volt battery runs things like the ECU, it closes high voltage battery relays and such. If you have a dead 12 volt battery, you can't access the high voltage (traction) battery anymore.

Is this is really a big problem after 8 days. Mine looks kinda like that after a week and a half. How long do we expect it to take to say a bit?

A chat with service might be in order. Maybe they can help.

It can also be too long, my locking pin blocks the safety chain hook, and enough of the wiring connector to be questionable

Regarding the locking pins, I had difficulty finding enough room for the chain hookups. And had to resort to the supplied hitch pin. I do remove my hitch when not in use however.

I got the message but I can't press the submit button, did the usual checks of making sure the starred fields are filled in. Anyone else noticing this?

Sensors resetting, seems to me, would only be related to windshield replacement

I could have sworn that it was $299, but even ~$350 is too rich to get a connivence button. Yea totally a first world problem here. I don't think I'll be considering this unless prices come down a bit. Or I get an actual problem with my cable. I would rather go with a name brand since there...
