Proprietary tire sizes will affect Rivian's reputation with mainstream buyers. Mass-market consumers don't view this as a quirk—they view it as a predatory trap to bleed them on maintenance. When early adopters start posting $1,500 tire bills or getting stranded for weeks because local shops...

On a mass market vehicle.. What a not so smart decision.

10000%

The good - Drove smooth - Seats were comfortable and great side bolster - New UI was great - Impressive back seat spacing The bad - Struggling with the halo wheels. When moving in any way besides up and down it was tough. Not sure software can fix this - External capacitive buttons were...

Lot of false info here

Actually I just put on new Nokian tires last yr. And I don't run them in the winter so they probably have 5-6k miles on them. But to be honest even the OEM Pirellis did the same thing. They just don't track well.

First thing I noticed was the tracking of the Gen 2 was MUCH better. Both have 22" sport Wheels. The Gen 1 always needs constant nudging to stay in lane. I did get a wheel alignment as well and still same issue. The G2 definitely seems more poised and just handles like your in a smaller...

Look at the side parking sensor in the front bumper and see if the paint is bubbling.

I've tried soft/hard resets, logged off/on multiple times. I went to the Spotify app on my phone and it shows there fine as well. Also tried to jumping from one song to another on my phone but nothing. I don't have the premium service but I don't think that's the case as it was working fine...

Which specific rustoleum product? I just got a new replacement set and looking to be proactive as my first ones rusted out pretty bad.

I wish Rivian had a smart schedule to have the car charged to your limit by a specific time. That way daily, your battery will be warm/conditioned by the time you leave every day. That will make a massive difference in efficiency during the cold weather winter months. Smart scheduling meaning...

Do folks bring this same issue up with rear slider doors on minivans which, if I'm not mistaken, are all electronically activated to open? Isn't the same concern? What am I missing?
