Why so? All car brands went after a goal some are arrogant and is set up to build the best, prettiest car ever. But reality sets in the cost exceeds what people will pay. So, then like all do they build the biggest market car which is the cheapest low end segment. Service models like Rivian must run perfectly or it crumbles, well they are going to add this new R2 where the new owners are going to have a hard time affording the car to begin with let alone handle repairs etc. These poorly run service centers are now going to be over run with R2 owners. Good look to all the owners including
myself.

Why are you even here? What is your goal with these posts? I know you had a bad service experience but a lot of people have had good experiences. Maybe you are just trying to short the stock. Seems like the most logical explanation to me.

you must be a fan boy, it’s ok I have an opinion and you don’t like it and I am sorry, people need to know the issues with Rivian. Stop trying to think you can get into my head just relax and post all you want about the car why you like. Don’t be unhinged it’s not about you personally i promise.

I don't care about getting in your head. You had a bad experience big fricken deal. No need to keep dumping on Rivian. And you seem to call anyone that disagrees with you "unhinged". Not sure why but it seems like you have vey thin skin and can't take any criticism.

Relax this is my opinion about this car, people should know about the issues. You fanboys think you can tell me what or what not to say. If you like your rivian than post about. Stop being a baby and move on. LMAO, you fanboys are literally nuts. I didn’t tell you your baby is ugly?

your criticism is crying, so stop crying and let me have my opinion as many times I want. My skin is great, I get the best tan my wife says it even looks good with my gray rivian :)

Disagree with you

1) If the R2’s come off of an almost totally automated assembly near perfect ( and I expect they will) the need for service centers actually decreases. The perfect manufacturing model

2) The R2 is being priced similarly to most other upscale SUV’s in the market

I expect Rivian to excel!

While your post could use some editing to fix the grammar I understand your sentiment.

I too am concerned about Rivian service once the R2 starts hitting large production numbers. A lot of service centers are already backed up, it’ll only get worse with the R2. You’re kidding yourself if you don’t think so.

Rivian has said they are adding more service centers this year and increasing mobile service. That should help but it’s going to be rough over the next year or so.
