  5. Gen 1 R1S frunk and liftgate opens on their own

    I’ve had a lot of problems with the tailgate and frunk on my Gen1 R1S. In fact my car is getting serviced right now for the second time for the problems. My problems are different- the tailgate won’t open automatically about half the time, it just unlocks and stays down. My frunk is different...
  6. The Elephant in the Room [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICAL DISCUSSION]

    I’ve been recharging a fair amount at Tesla Supercharging stations lately and have made a point of talking to Tesla owners. Many approach me to ask how I like my R1S. A lot of them have said they are considering a Rivian for the extra space and some have said they are not a fan of Elon. When...
  7. Service Appointment today: they won’t touch it for 2 weeks.

    Man, I wish I was so lucky. All told my tailgate adjustment, state inspection and tire rotation is probably less than a couple hours of work. Yet, I have to wait 2 weeks for it! Ugg.
  8. Service Appointment today: they won’t touch it for 2 weeks.

    I just dropped off my R1S to get the tailgate adjusted (not opening properly-warranty repair), tire rotation and state inspection. I made the appointment 2 months ago. I was told it would be TWO WEEKS until they would get to it. I asked if I could keep it and bring it back in two weeks and they...

    I’m a Gen 1 Connect+subscriber… nothing yet. False advertising!!!
  11. Tapping out as well, goodbye Rivian...

    I’ve owned multiple Jeeps over many years. I traded a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT in when I bought my R1S. I’ll never go back. My last couple of Jeeps were nightmares. I had multiple emission issues which required two full replacements of the exhaust system to the tune of $5000 each. The electrical...

    Great report! Thanks for sharing. Rivian is going to sell A LOT of these.
  14. Devastated… rear ended in my brand new week-old 2025 R1S

    I am so sorry this happened to you. I’m so sorry that you were hurt. It looks like your Rivian held up pretty well, especially compared to the other car. Years ago I was getting my Jaguar serviced at the dealership and a flatbed tow truck showed up with a Jaguar XJR with 30 day tags and a...
  15. WSJ: After Layoffs, Tesla’s Supercharger Expansion Slows

    Yes he does. But he’s largely been hands off. I’ve been reading it for years. Top notch reporting. (I avoid the OpEds.)
  16. WSJ: After Layoffs, Tesla’s Supercharger Expansion Slows

    https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/after-layoffs-teslas-supercharger-expansion-slows-0d12cbaa?st=s2kXX1&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink I'm wondering if the slow roll out of adaptors is intentional. While opening up the Network to non-Teslas has gotten them Federal money, could they be...
  17. AppleMusic: No Made For You Favorites Mix?

    I really hope they evolve and improve Apple Music. There are a number of features that are either missing or limited. My big pet peeve is that it shows a maximum of 100 tracks on a playlist.
  18. R1S Long Trip Results (2024 R1S)

    Thanks for sharing. I’m going on a 1,000+ mile trek in October. I just bought the A2Z Tiphoon Pro. I’m really excited to us the Tesla Supercharger Network. It’s a game changer- I mapped out the trip with and without using the Tesla network and it makes a big (positive) difference- easier...
  19. How to Improve a Gen 1 Rivian R1S’s Elevation Sound System After Update 2024.27.01 With Simple EQ Changes

    Thank you for this very detailed and well researched post. It obviously took a lot of time and the effort to put this together was substantial and done in the spirit of helping the community. A couple of questions: is there a separate area to set the EQ for Atmos? Or do you have to change it...
  20. Apple Music displays a maximum of 50 songs of a playlist

    I rebooted my Rivian and it now shows a max of 100 tracks. Still disappointed, though. Show all of them Rivian!
