Great news!

Rather than develop an integration for every music service on their own, Rivian should partner with Sonos to make their technology a part of all Rivians. Sonos already has integrations with multiple services. In fact, you would be hard pressed to find a system that has more services on their...

I am very happy that Rivian now has Apple Music built in but it has one major flaw: if you play one of your personal playlists, the list will only show a max of 50 tracks. I have lots of playlists with more than 50 songs. This really limits the usefulness of Apple Music. Rivian, if you are...

I’ve always had trouble streaming video with AirPlay even when using it with my Apple TV hardware. I find the best thing to use is screen mirroring.

Sounds like the only safe option is to take it to Rivian. I just called Discount Tire. They do alignments, just not for Rivians. He said that they need special tools for the suspension to do alignments for Rivians. He suggested a “full service” tire shop, but I would not take the chance...

I talked to the manager of my local Discount Tire and he said they are all in on Rivian’s. Each store has compatible pucks for the lifts. I too have had them rotate my tires and repair one with a nail in it. They did a great job. I would assume that they would do a good job balancing/aligning...

Maybe a dumb question but isn’t the 12v battery charging when the vehicle is charging?

I experience 1, 3, and 4 on a regular basis on my R1S.

I think that in the long run, Tesla’s reliance on cameras will be a flawed strategy. Rivian’s hardware, while better, will take some time to mature. I have noticed a number of bugs using Driver+ including phantom braking and late braking. it is definitely not ready for prime time, so keep your...

Does the car reboot after updates? Just curious if anyone knows.

The new cameras are so much better than the old ones. It also looks like they have been repositioned to get a better view. it seems that my older R1S does not have such an expansive view. Mine is obviously a much lower quality resolution.

Thanks for sharing. 13xxx is about half way to my 28xxx. Looks like I’ll be waiting a while.

I’ve noticed my R1S’s wind noise has gotten worse (had mine since November). There is something rolling around in the front roof over the driver and you can hear it when taking a turn. I have had a continuing problem with the rear hatch. When pushing the outside button, it may or may not open...

Buy a cheap jar of petroleum jelly and smear it on their windows.

All this back and forth about Rivian’s communication and lack of communication is making my head spin. Here’s a simple solution: Assuming that Rivian is sending these out in VIN order, why don’t they post the latest VIN that got one? That way we have an idea where they are relative to our own VIN.

The new improvements to the software were superficial. There is a huge list of desired software improvements on RivianTrackr that Rivian should focus resources on. These would make the user experience much better.

I’ve never had a problem with my AC. I live in hot and humid Virginia. My R1S gets cold fast and gets the cabin cold quickly. The noise is pretty bad, though.

I updated my R1S Saturday night and then took an 80 mile trip on Sunday. Most of my driving was on highways. On highways, the truck is much smoother (I keep it on soft setting). It also seemed much quieter. The handling was a bit better, but the real test will be driving around town. So far...

So I guess they’ll get to Nov/23 in a few years.
