  1. Help: Insane dashboard rattle on mild washboard roads

    Mine does the same thing. SC can’t replicate and won’t try to fix.
  2. 30 amp adapter for use at RV campground

    This! You can get the 50-30A conversion cables at Walmart or any RV parts store if you’re in a pinch. Something you may want to consider is a portable power surge protector like a Hughes Watchdog. RV parks are notorious for not providing clean power. I use one on our RV and many years ago, it...
  3. What amount would you spend to upgrade from Gen1 Quad to Gen2 tri-max?

    My R1S tri under heavy acceleration cannot maintain a straight line. Both in standard and sport mode. I think this has to do with the rear squatting and front lifting which is changing the geometry of the front suspension.
  4. How do you manually open the rear doors on a Gen2?

    using your analogy, everyone should sit in the exit row of a plane.
  5. How do you manually open the rear doors on a Gen2?

    Go do it. Post a video from inside of how long it takes to pull the panel, find the cord, and exit the vehicle. Now do it in the front seat. My goal is to get Rivian owners to complain to the company so they will take this matter seriously. I’ve already filed a formal complaint with NHTSA.
  6. How do you manually open the rear doors on a Gen2?

    This is literally what our service center told us. The service advisor, and the delivery team all confirmed this is the way to exit in an emergency. Don’t blame me for repeating what has been communicated.
  7. How do you manually open the rear doors on a Gen2?

    and as I said before, you expect a young child to have the strength or presence of mind in an emergency to be capable of performing this action?
  8. Shout out to Discount Tire

    Nope. My truck is the same way, too heavy.
  9. How do you manually open the rear doors on a Gen2?

    I’m 100% with you here. Especially when the only method to exit is to destructively access the emergency pull. Which no one but an adult male is going to be able to do. Imagine your toddler, young child, or grandparent trying to get out of a burning EV under extreme stress. This is a huge miss...
  10. How do you manually open the rear doors on a Gen2?

    you don’t. Escape is through the front doors. Service explained this to me after I noted there was no rear interior door handles. Another item I wish I knew before buying the R1S.
  11. What amount would you spend to upgrade from Gen1 Quad to Gen2 tri-max?

    With all I know now about owning a Rivian, I would not trade for the TriMax. The dual is more than enough for most people and the range is slightly better. Also, the dual has far less torque steer over the tri.
  12. Rear hatch won’t open

    New issue which I’m logging data and opening a new service request. Noticed this a few days after getting the S back from service. Probably a coincidence as I don’t think service caused it. A few days ago after shopping at Costco, I went to open the back and pushed the button under the back...
  13. California's ban on ICE vehicles has been blocked

    Just remember, CARB also mandated previously only OEM parts were approved for any emissions replacement. Then SEMA sued the state and won. Now you have the right to select aftermarket parts. So no, I don’t agree the government gets to mandate things.
  14. California's ban on ICE vehicles has been blocked

    The removal of LEAD from fuel was another top contributor of removing harmful emissions from our air. Asian, economic impact was minimal to the consumer.
  15. California's ban on ICE vehicles has been blocked

    Are you pretending CO2 isn’t a byproduct of 7B humans? Approximately 1.7 gigatons per year from human breath. https://www.newscientist.com/lastword/mg25534022-700-what-percentage-of-carbon-dioxide-emissions-is-from-us-breathing-out/
  16. California's ban on ICE vehicles has been blocked

    There’s a huge difference between 2kW AC for a few hours a day v 7-9kW for 12 hours straight. Also, most of our electricity comes from natural gas or coal. So you’re just shifting the emissions to another source.
  17. California's ban on ICE vehicles has been blocked

    Let us know when you get caught with a Montana plate in CA. The state is watching everyone doing this and will eventually catch those who are avoiding paying their taxes.
  18. California's ban on ICE vehicles has been blocked

    Read my post about how CA will restrict and enforce their 2035 mandate.
