  1. Rear dampener needs replaced, just past warranty

    Reason this is alarming to me is because I paid for new front lower control arms in an effort to stop the creaking. When it should of been subframe all along, I wouldn't of had to pay 2600 for them.

    Now I'm going to be questioning my SC manager when I pick mine up. I have Vin 25xx R1S Gen 1 quad
  3. Rear dampener needs replaced, just past warranty

    I'll note that if you have a quad Gen 1 - it's just the actual subframe that gets replaced. I confirmed with SC manager as I was excited to get new parts in my mind too. Rivian has Gen 1 quad subframes that are cast (made these before Gen 2 cast). The Gen 1 quad cast fit the Gen 1 parts. It's a...

  5. Rear dampener needs replaced, just past warranty

    Exact quote from the service center manager when they told me they are going to replace the subframe: "There are reasons Rivian made the Gen2 Subframe" which I'm pretty sure he was implying for the creaking without officially saying for the creaking. I've seen a lot of posts and chatter about...

    70k had to pay 2500 for new front lower control arms 78k had to pay 1900 for one rear left damper (fluid leak too). Now I'm concerned about the right damper going bad. 81k they are putting in a new front drive unit and replacing the Gen 1 subframe with a Gen 2 subframe. Trying to solve this...

  9. Anyone else have this creaking old truck sound?

    Two SC visits and the sound still persists. I've dropped over 4400 on new front lower control arms and a rear damper. This post isn't geared at my frustration but rather has anyone else had this issue / sound and got it resolved? See videos. Gen 1 2022 LE R1S with 79k miles

  12. Anyone have any luck finding 3rd party extended warranty?

    Long story short, 2nd service center visit in a month for creaking suspension. First visit I paid out 2600 for new control arms, this time they want to replace a leaking rear damper for 2k. Aside from me trying to get Rivian to cut me a break for their parts not lasting past 78k miles, has...

We do mostly food deliveries, but when the events are hot in Cincinnati, I'll fire up uber driver and accept comfort or xl rides - (they generally pay more). It's a great way to hand out referral codes for...

    Just to note - I gave an @uber ride to an audio engineer. He currently works on mixing songs for @Dolby Atmos for several labels. His jaw dropped when I fired up some Dolby Atmos songs in the @Rivian R1S with the @MeridianAudio.
