  1. Why I’m leaving the Rivian Family After Owning / Leasing 3 R1Ts

    I'm on my 3rd Rivian R1 as well (two T's and S). All fantastic rides with few issues since 2022 and about 50K miles in total driving. Original T had the front motor control unit replaced and the local service center was fabulous. S was trouble-free. Current '25 R1T has been reliable other...

  2. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    It sucks big-time. Nothing works right. I get a "blank stare" (wavvy bar goes away without action) like 9 out of 10 times. I tried rephrasing some simple tasks a few ways and it never worked. Not even close. I mean who approved releasing this POS

  3. Gen 2 12 volts for the dash and/or frunk

    If you leave a device charging or powered overnight does this risk bricking the vehicle?

  4. Drive assist fails totally after service

    clustered ... sorry to hear

  5. 2026.03 Update Pushed! Now Installing

    Id like the audio system to be stable. Hardly a day goes by without Sirius or Spotify locking up

  7. 👉 2026 Air Cruiser RTT – First Look (Rivian Fit)

    Paid my reservation yesterday. Can't wait for it! :)

  8. Towing w/ adaptive cruise and lane centering

    OP - have you considered getting the Evotrex-PG5

  9. R2 buyers - will you wait for gen 3 hardware (including LiDAR)?

    Best approach that Rivian should take (read this, not my original idea) is to NOT do the typical "Launch Edition" R2 (Dual, AWD, fancy bits) coming out of the gate, but rather begin with the base configuration (Single, longer range) priced closer to the often stated $45K price. There's likely a...

  10. Universal Hands-Free can kill you! (If you don’t read release notes)

    I do appreciate the comments about how informative the update notification is... however, I posted this to help the next fool that doesn't bother reading instructions.

  11. Universal Hands-Free can kill you! (If you don’t read release notes)

    Took me a moment to interpret this, until I realized my signature info was outdated on the vehicle. Moved from the '23 R1S to a '25 R1T Dual Perf. a couple months back... Updated my sig. :)

  12. Universal Hands-Free can kill you! (If you don’t read release notes)

    I described my approach as bonsai, so at least I'm self-aware Riviot :p

  13. Universal Hands-Free can kill you! (If you don’t read release notes)

    OK, I realize this thread title is controversial and admins may strike it down. I got the .46 update and was excited to give it a try - after watching several of the Rivian influencer reviews from the 'Autonomy Day' event. I do recall the Rivian person in the vehicle (repeatedly) saying this...
