Thankfully, I have a spare ICEV, so no rental needed. It's a 2014 Ford Expedition w/ 208k miles on it and since my daily commute is 100+ miles I have to fill it up every 4 days since it only gets 15 mpg. HATE having to stop at gas stations and 2 pedal driving. ☹️ #1WP

Thanks for the detailed info! Gaithersburg SC is 2+ hours from my home but Glen is ~35 mins.

What's the address? I literally just got a call from Rivian Support on Saturday evening to ask what day would be best to bring in my R1S for the 12V battery and wheel arm torque campaign, and I asked about Glen Burnie opening and he said he didn't have any information. SMH

Well it should be indicated on your final estimate paperwork.

Based upon my experience, unless you are paying for an extra OEM parts rider which only Safeco and Nationwide offers, you aren't guaranteed OEM parts unless there's no other option; my Audi Q7 OEM high intensity headlamps do not have an aftermarket option and cost $4,600 each, so they had no...

That one was 2nd on my list since it's 2nd closet. How was your experience with them?

Sure but comes down to what your insurance company (or the other insurance company) will pay for; e.g. if the shop will ONLY use OEM parts but the insurance company will not pay for OEM parts, then you are free to pay the difference. ? I've experienced this scenario twice in the last 2 years...

I did assume the SC was the way to go but I checked the Rivian Certified Collision Centers website to see if there were any closer options since the Gaithersburg SC is 2+ hours away on a regular traffic day. However, my insurance company said I could either take it to one of their certified...

Not sure in which states some of the these commenters live but at least in The People's Republic of MD you 100% have the *right of way* unless you were speeding which they obviously could not prove. I'm shocked and concerned that your R1T is totalled especially since the air bags were not...

The main concern about Scout using Rivian software is that it SUCKS! Well aware of the Scout history but definitely seems like it is being treated as an American start up with VW Group financial backing. Well aware of dieselgate and EA history but let us not forget that VW Group also owns...

Well the Honda Civic driver was definitely hurt and taken away via ambulance but he was able to walk to the ambulance so it could have been worse. The other Rivian certified collision centers are in Severn or Rockville but I live in Harford County and work in Anne Arundel Co so Severn would be...

I'm hanging my hat on another American-made EV startup that has displayed at least a dozen design decisions/philosophies that are superior to Rivian R1 which addresses every stupid design decision that I hate about my R1S. My only concern is that it will using Rivian software that includes even...

Exactly! Another unprecedented incredibly stupid design decision! SMH

Yeah, one of MANY short-sighted design decisions since they apparently didn't think about what a p.i.t.a. it would be for your 12V battery die and have your door handles inoperable in the rain! Scout can't come soon enough. SMH

Thanks for the info. To be fair to the Honda Civic driver, if you look closely at the videos, he slowed down in plenty of time but the Chevy Silverado slammed into the back of him and catapulted him into my R1S rear. Apparently, the Chevy Silverado driver told his insurance company that the...

Well, I think every other ICEV solves it a long time ago. ?

Unfortunately, my R1S was Rear-Ended on my way to work Tuesday in a 3 car pile-up in the Ft. McHenry tunnel. I'm ok but the guy in the Honda Civic who was catapulted under rear of my R1S by the Chevy Silverado was in a hurt locker as you can see from my R1S videos below. As always, F=MA which...

Well, Scout Traveler and Terra are 800V, so apparently not a problem.

More F.U.D.D. I've owned probably a dozen vehicles over the last 35+ years with sun/moon roofs including an aftermarket ones and experienced ZERO leaks. I would gladly pay extra for a sheet metal roof so that I could at least get an aftermarket market sunroof than a stupid glass roof that...

Don't believe the F.U.D.D. The only instances I could find of ANY ceramic tint issues that *may* have contributed to broken glass on ANY vehicles were 1 or 2 DIYers who used cheap products. Just go with a proven product (XPEL XR+) and a reputable professional installer and sleep like a baby...
