It was said we are in a membership beta. I agree the list was vague at best, and things like gear guard are and should be included at N/C. However new stuff like new features of Drivers + are on the table as they never promised anything above adaptive cruise and lane keep assist, only that the...
I asked service about this door issues some months back, issue happens with or without car wash mode. Service advisor went to ask detailing crew how they keep this from happening while washing vehicles for delivery? Response was every vehicle washed seems to open the door when being washed...
Looking at the auto industry as a whole, and having been in and around it for longer than I want to admit, there is a lot they could throw out. Let's look at BMW models they have discussed in a subscription setting. Carplay, heated/cooled seats, remote locking, anti-theft. My daughters previous...
I had wind issues on both front sides and took into Denver service center. They confirmed and replaced weather strip on both sides. Interesting part was the triangle and strips they changed are one piece, so had to tint the triangles again after repair. Seemed to be some design changes to the...
I have the 20's, not the 22" Nokian LT3 installed on my R1T here in Denver. Night and day difference with vehicle in snow since changing tires. Great winter tire, Denver service center says quite a few people installing on Rivian's here in CO
Had issue when parking for 30min or longer. Once driving again would watch from raise. Service found leak in front fitting and replaced. Solved issue and excessive compressor running
I offer Rivian to take a dual motor smaller battery version for my preorder and pay the price of my quad motor config. Figured they would lose less money with this offer, I was told no and current pricing would apply. Go figure
I put out an offer to Rivian but it was a no. We have an R1T, and an S on order pre price increase. We are changing to a T once tonneau cover comes back as an option, our guide said the same thing. I feel a bit bad that Rivian is losing money on all of the early orders, so I presented an idea...
I have been driving here in Denver with display showing -11, left in auto and temp set to 72. Fan ran on 3, occasionally 4 for brief periods. Have had no heat issues even when we hit -19 at the house. My battery drains like a Hellcats gas tank, but warm air is no issue
I doubt Amazon is unhappy about only tripling their money at this moment. The corporate incentives for adopting EV’s or other so called “clean vehicles” is huge. It ensured they were at the head of the line, Amazon will qualify for credits to build out EV charging for their vehicles, and when...
It is BS that anyone would try and steal from other. Should be a software update to allow would be thieves a sample of 400V energy. I believe VTP (vehicle to perp) is correct acronym.
Bummer you had to have a visit from an obvious group of losers, glad it ended well for you.
Jack,
I have an R1T here in Denver for about 5 months. I have had some small annoyances that Denver service center has handled with the utmost professionalism. The vehicle is incredible, probably one of the best I have ever owned. Have been in the auto industry for a long time, owned many...
Nothing in my inbox, however I got a lengthy survey from a 3rd party company in the mail. I looked though it and seemed to be a very generic survey with Rivian inserted. Many questions looked geared towards all manufactures and more about collecting data on buyers.
Though I am sure snow mode will help, have to say tires are the bigger issue. Had some snow a while back and drove on the 20"AT on the white stuff. Truck was sliding at slow speed going around corners, put regen on normal and still had to play a lot slowing down. Decided to install Nokian LT3...
Found 20’s to be pretty weak on ice, slides way more than my KO2’s on my Ram. Installed Nokian LT3 after feeling like a newbie on the ice rink. Sorry about your hood, think we all cringe if anything happens to our trucks
One tech told me there have been issues with the weatherstrip by the small fixed glass on front doors. Mine however seems to be from 1/2 way and up on the angle part of the glass. Is on the ticket for Dec 1 repair, will advise if they have a trick beyond gluing it shut.
I know this is way off today's topic, but what is best approach for sending suggestions up the chain to Rivian? We all want extra stuff added we take for granted on other vehicles, Apple music, seats and wheel to heat when we turn on climate. But in those moments when realizing Samuel L Jackson...
