Oh I take absolutely no responsibility for whatever someone does with their recalled adaptor, don't you worry! ? The details of the recall give me 0 concern whatsoever with our vehicles, though.

I don't think your charging plans should change whatsoever. The recalled unit is perfectly safe for the charging limit our vehicles have. Even if you were trying to charge a Porsche or EV9 which sustain significantly higher charge rates for long periods of time you'd still be perfectly safe. I...

This is a very odd way of saying "Rivian forgot to order the right amount of copper and will now struggle to produce components for many months". It's not like motors are the only item that requires 6 weeks of service. They left me with a Jeep rental for almost a month just to align my passenger...

Currently all RAN stations (except the brand new Joshua Tree outpost) are only available to Rivian vehicles. The NACS adaptor definitely opens up a ton more reliable chargers, but for an I-5 trip just plan out your stops at RAN chargers and you should be good. I've only had to wait at a RAN...

Yeah, this is expected for gen 1 because they use the Bosch motors on all four wheels. Those Bosch motors are not oil bathed, so it takes a lot of heat from the motors to effectively warm the components surrounding them. The gen 1 dual motors (and all gen 2 motors) are Rivian built and oil...

They have the capabilities to pull them remotely as well apparently. They claim the service center has already seen the diagnostics I took as soon as the issue occurred the most recent time, and I asked them to also check another diagnostic I took for the same issue. The important thing about...

I'm about to order an organizer and see if they send me another adaptor. Infinite money glitch!

They claimed the service center took a look at my diagnostics, but only because they escalated the issue with them. So it seems like you have to have an appointment first, and if that appointment is deemed important enough then maybe they'll pull your logs? The support folks you talk to on the...

Quick update here; service called to say it wasn't a vehicle issue, and asked me to try another charger. The service rep who originally wrote up my ticket didn't document any of the questions they asked me in my request, and I insisted again that this error happened on 4 separate chargers...

I haven't driven a Tri yet, but there's no way this expected right? I've never seen my duals get anywhere close to this when warming the battery. Does it heat the battery quicker at 250 degrees? Sure. Do you have to burn half the battery's capacity to those temps up get there, and another half...

Holy ... why would this be necessary whatsoever on the Rivian built motors?! I thought only Bosch had to replicate the surface of the sun to warm the battery??

We don't usually get release notes until UAT is complete. It'll most likely be another week til then.

This thread is two years old. Nothing mentioned in the previous replies is anywhere close to being up to date. My understanding is that snow mode _allows for_ the lowest possible regen setting, but that doesn't mean changing into snow mode will change your regen setting automatically.

The keyword is could. They could do plenty without AI, but don't. It's way easier to implement a cron job to send notifications to users with affected 12V batteries. That's an intern project, not something ChatGPT is needed for.

I don't understand; how do you think automating the customer service aspect of Rivian support will make that reality come true? Your vehicle burns kilowatt hours every day while it's parked, sending vehicle information back to Rivian servers, and they still can't tell you if your 12V battery is...

That's probably why the service folks confusingly told me "charge speeds are limited to 155kW when charging at Tesla super charger stations" and I had to correct them and explain the faster speeds I saw two days prior.

That's great, I'm glad we're only using 11 gWh a day to make hot Elon images with 6 fingers on each hand and Vaseline haze filter effect instead of the 12 gWh we used to use in May, 2024

This is my feeling about every LLM feature I've seen so far. None of the utility outweighs the immense plume of emissions every single prompt emits. For a company like Rivian who claims to be climate-first and emphasizing the need for renewable energy, it's just pure hypocrisy to lean into...

can't wait for the assistant to accidentally schedule a service appointment for 6 months out after I asked it for a shipping update on my gear shop order

Which update? There's no way you're getting this one when it's not even through UAT yet
