  1. Service Center Kinda Sucks?

    Yeah, similar experience where I spoke with someone who set my appointment as a waiter, but when I got there they said I had to drop it off and couldn’t wait because they were busy to which I said that was the point of an appointment. They then said they didn’t have the part needed for the...

  2. Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Solution is Coming Soon... (seriously) -- by EV Play

    I paid for mine prior to the cutoff, but never received a tracking number or a response. I’ve emailed Alex three different times asking for this information and have not heard back. I’m glad to hear that others have received it, because I was really concerned that this is a scam at this point...

  3. đź›» BestEvMod May Giveaway – Let’s Roll.

    cleaned and in the driveway

  4. Anyone Still Using RAN?

    Yeah, they’re always fast and reliable… plus the vehicle fits in the parking spot correctly.

  5. I solved my audio volume “scaling” issue - try this if 2 to 3 is too loud

    Same…

  6. Rivian Service Center Bad at Math?

    Well, I am in a loaner currently and have been since November 4th so yeah, math and speed isn’t their thing.

  7. Traded Gen 1 R1T Quad Large in for GMC Sierra ICE

    I bought mine in May. It is at the service center currently for the 4th visit and they *hope* to have it back to me the week of the 20th. They have had it since 11/04/24.

  8. New low speed noise - sounds electronic

    Ends up you were correct - I am currently waiting on a backordered front drive unit.

  9. Trade in owned to lease; won't pay back difference

    Weird. Try Carvana, Sonic, and/or CarMax. (Probably in that order)

  10. New Michelin LTX M/S2 on 275/55 R21 tires extra load on Gen1 R1T

    Former tire distributor here. If you can’t tell a difference between a Michelin and a Pirelli on the Tesla, then I’d recommend you just stick with the stock Pirelli tire. IMHO, Pirellis are consistently subpar tires for the price point and Michelins are always worth a premium. Michelins always...

  11. Regenerative Braking Too Strong: Dealbreaker for Me?

    So I remember it feeling very weird when I test drove my first EV but within a couple days of driving, I found that I loved it - to the point that when we were shopping for our other car, we didn’t buy an Audi because it didn’t have strong regen or true one pedal driving. If you are still not...

  12. New device providing Carplay for Teslas - Teslogic Screenmate

    If they make this for Rivian, I will buy it - even at that crazy price. The lack of CarPlay especially for Messages and Teams is the biggest gap in the Rivian UX. I’ll even keep paying for Connect+ because of the better sound quality of Apple Music.

  13. Introductions & Welcome Thread đź‘‹

    I really like my truck as far as the design and driving characteristics, but have also had a pretty bad ownership experience from a build quality and speed/convenience of service. I bought mine in May, it’s been in for service 3 times (with a 4th scheduled) for over 40 total days - and I have...

  14. New low speed noise - sounds electronic

    Done and waiting for the appointment. Was hoping for confirmation and reference to a repair because sometimes they like to call things normal/characteristic the first time.

  15. New low speed noise - sounds electronic

    Just tried that. Also just tried the full system restart (left button and hazards). That didn’t make a difference. I will say it is still very noticeable today, but not as loud as it was when I took the videos - maybe 25% reduction in the volume of the noise. Thanks
